Geographic distribution:
Northeastern

Corrientes
)
,

and
Paraguay

.
Remarks:
The morphological differences between
N. condecoratus
(
type
female) and
N. bosqi
(
type
male) are due to sexual dimorphism and color variation. In the
type
of
N. condecoratus
the scaly vestiture is green and in the variety β is purple to copper-colored, same as in the
type
of
N. bosqi
.
The females from
Argentina
and
Paraguay
show a slightly wider pronotum than those from
Brazil
.
