Abdomen
. Setae both of tergites and sternites arranged in basal, marginal and lateral setae, with those on tergites more irregular and those of sternites more numerous medially. Number of setae on tergites I–VIII as: 12, 30, 36, 36, 42, 39, 22, 20; on sternites I–VIII as: 0, 0, 18, 29, 37, 33, 27, 45.
Genitalia
(
Figs 17–20
). Gonocoxapodemes VIII forming well sclerotized complete circles, each encircling about 23 setae. Floor developed. Dorsomesal lobe wider than the long, ventrolateral lobe nearly straight with a few weak apical microtrichia. Gonocoxite with 5 setae. Tergite IX somewhat bluntly triangular with 18 setae. Postgenital plate sharply triangular. Cercus 49 µm long. Seminal capsule about 41 µm long, about 41 µm wide, spermathecal ducts with large bend but no loop, without bulbs before common opening. Notum 41 µm long.
Remarks.
Although other species of
Nandeva
in addition to
Nandeva latiloba
are present in the same locality and date the association is ascertained by the low number of setae on wing vein M and the presence of frontals.
Distribution.
The species previously was known only from São Paulo State in
Brazil
. The new material extends the distribution to Rio de Janeiro and Paraná states, as well as to
Venezuela
.
