Holotype female macroptera: NE India, Kekruma in Phek district of Nagaland, ( Lat: 25 0 62'265" N; Long: 94 0 25'025"E), 1642m, from the galls of Bixa orellana (Bixaceae), 11.ii.2000 (O. Tarun Kumar) (Registration No. 4944/H17) in the Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata . Paratypes: 2 females with data as holotype; Mizoram, Dampa Tiger Reserve (23 0 32'42" N; 92 0 13'12" E), 4 females from stems of Mallotus sp. ( Euphorbiaceae) 12.iii.2014 (Th. Johnson) in the Insect Museum, Division of Entomology, CAS in Life Sciences , Manipur University; one paratype in National Bureau of Agricultural Insect Resources, Bengaluru.</p><p>Biology. Only females of N. crenulatus have been discovered. These were collected from the stem and also empty rolled-leaf galls on Bixa orellana (Bixaceae), and also from the stems of Mallotus sp. ( Euphorbiaceae). Larvae were present in a colony on the stem of Mallotus, together with a few pupae and eggs, but attempts to rear further adults were not successful. Feeding habits of this species could not be determined. The larval aggregation suggests that the species is not a predator, but it might be phytophagous or mycophagous.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D759CB1EFFABFFC57E88FCF267223A8E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
