The terminalia of all are similar in the shape of the gonocoxite, with an inner appendage, and the typically bent, bipartite gonostylus.All four possess thinly sclerotised sheath-like parameres along both sides of the aedeagus. Tergite extensions with ornamental setulae occur in N. similis (segment 5), and N. capixaba (all segments), but not in 1. GDPS¿DQXV and N. pilipes. The close relationship of these species can be based on the shape of the terminalia and the characteristicallyshaped parameres. The presence or absence of tergite extensions and ornamental setulae on various segments are surely no features to assess relationships among Neotropical Nemopalpus species.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03DE879F233CFFE9620DFA0AC54E8608	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
