Notes: In this new species segments 7 and 8 are probably involved in the torsion of the terminalia. The shape of the terminalia indicates a relationship to N . phoenimimos Quate & Alexander, 2000 , which is also known from Colombia . The inner appendage on the gonostylus of N. cancer sp. n. distinguishes these species.
