P. the second and third anal vein (2A+3A) of the fore wing are nearly obliterated. This characteristic is known for N. brevifalcata and illustrated by Koch (1998b: fig. 36) , and it can cause specimens to be misidentified as belonging to Distega . Neacidiophora brevifalcata is known only from the male.
