Systematics: Newsteadia smetanai differs from N. nepalensis by having a small number of quadrilocular pores on the dorsum, but they do not form groups, by the absence of hairlike setae in the middle part of the ovisac band, by the presence of wax plates in the coxal depressions, and by the absence of a midcoxal depression in front of the ovisac band (Kozár et al., 2002).
Biology: Specimens were collected in forest litter (Kozár, 2004).
General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration by Kozár et al. (2002). Redescription by Kozár (2004). The type series of this species was originally included in the paratype series of Newsteadia nepalensis but did not have collection numbers (Kozár et al., 2002).
