Neocurtilla Kirby, 1906

(figs. 11–14)

Epiphallus: Transversal sclerite triangular, with an acute dorsal margin (except N. hexadactyla, in which it is convex), tongue-shaped, almost as wide as it is long; apical sclerite (amp) truncate, of varying shape depending on the species.

Ectophallus: Narrow, made of two parameres with a particular shape, latero-basal sclerite present and ovoid, basal plate square-shaped. Internal process finger-shaped.

Comments. Neocurtilla can be differentiated from a close genus (yet to be described) in the shape of the bmp; in the new genus it is wider than it is longer and with a wavy amp, with two moderate protuberances at each lateral margin. Another difference is the shape of the ectophallus, which in the new genus is wide, with rectangular-shaped basal plates, the latero-basal sclerite is circular and long, internal process finger-shaped but smaller than in Neocurtilla .

Specimens examined: N. hexadactyla (Perty, 1832), N. scutata (Chopard, 1930), Neocurtilla n.sp., n.gen et n. sp. 1.
