Systematics: Newsteadia borhidii is similar to N. tristani, but differs by having clavate setae on all segments of the antennae, and by the presence of long tubular ducts (Kozár & Konczné Benedicty, 2001).
Structure: Mounted adult female 1.2 mm long, 0.8 mm wide. Antennae 3-segmented. Venter ovisac band short, but not interrupted in the middle. Dorsal wax plates cover only part of surface. Hairlike setae present in marginal clusters near posterior edges of marginal wax plates, and near anterolateral and anteromedial edge of each dorsomedial wax plate (Kozár & Konczné Benedicty, 2001).
