Taxonomic Note

The eighth sternite of N. carentis is unspined distally, but the tergite is tapering, bifid distally and deeply bilobed anteriorly. The uncus does not have conspicuous arms, the apical parts of the valves are more evenly tapered, shorter and more strongly curved than in viridescens, the juxta is much narrower than in the other two species and the saccus is distinctly longer. Much material has been taken at 1100m in the vicinity of Loksado in S. Kalimantan, but older material is from lowland localities such as Samarinda (Schintlmeister, 2006).
