Comments. Neofulla currently includes three species, all known from Chile but with none reported from Aisén Province. Aubert (1960) described two of these (in genus Illiesia); N. spinosa (Aubert) has two pairs of slender, upwardly directed spines on the lateral margins of the upper paraproct lobes and the lower lobes appear relatively unarmed, and N. biloba (Aubert) also bears prominent spines on the upper paraproct lobes, but lack a pair of spines on the apex. Illies (1961) redescribed N. areolata Navas, and his redescription is consistent with our male specimen in having the lateral margins of the lower paraproct lobes sinuate along the entire length.
