Remarks. This species was collected originally from Singapore. Thornton (1984) provided a further description from specimens collected on the lowlands of Lombok (Narmada) in July 1977. The wing and genitalic features of the above females clearly allocate them to this species, as the first records from Sumatra. N. cubitalis has previously been recorded from Singapore, Java, Lombok, Sumbawa and Sumba.
