Comment. The species is very similar to N. flavapicalis Assing, 2014 in general appearance and aedeagal characters, but can be separated by the sparser punctation of the head ( Hu et al. 2016: 476 , Fig. 9 ), by the shorter and wider ventral process of the aedeagus in lateral view ( Hu et al. 2016: 476 , Fig. 13). Distribution and habitat data. The species is known only from Cona County, in Southern Xizang ( Fig. 10D ). The specimens were collected by sifting leaf litter in a mixed forest at an altitude of 1900–2700 m .
