General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Hempel (1932). There are no adult female type specimens of this species, but adult females of a species that appeared to be N. xerophila were available to Foldi and Gullan (2014). In order to confirm the identity of the latter adult females, we compared the third-instar females from Brazil described by Hempel with third-instar females collected with the adult females from Argentina and Uruguay. The third-instar females from all three countries appear to be identical and thus below they described redescribed of adult, third-instar, second-instar females, first-instar nymph and adult males based on these specimens from Argentina and Uruguay. Detailed illustrations in Foldi & Gullan, 2014.
