The maculation of Nealyda species (Fig. 1) is yellowish tan, brown, gray, and/or black. The labial palps (Fig. 2) are slightly rounded and stout with banding. The forewings typically have a single medial fascia darker than surrounding scales, but Caribbean species have two fasciae ( N. neopisoniae Clarke) or none ( N. bicolor Walsingham). The apex of the wing is darkly irrorated. The hindwings have a medial cleft, whereby the tornus is extended similarly to the apex. The metathoracic legs have a medial inner tibial spur greater than two times the length of the outer spur. In the male genitalia (Fig. 3), the valvae have sparse microtrichia apically. The saccular processes (or sacculi) are large, often strongly sclerotized, and mesally connected to each other. The vincular processes of the phytolaccae group are large lobed structures, while in the pisoniae group, they are weakly sclerotized bumps with microtrichia. The uncus is globular to conical. The gnathos is strongly reduced to a ring around the base of the uncus. The tegumen is trapezoidal with sparse microtrichia. The phallus is ankylosed to the vinculum. In the female genitalia (Fig. 4), the papillae anales are large, heavily sclerotized, and extremely setose. The ductus bursae and corpus bursae are unsclerotized. The signum is a small hook, spine, or granular patch. The larvae feed in leaf mines in Caryophyllales .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/480287B8FF82FF9BFF70909FFD97FA87	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Nealyda grandipinella differs from its congeners by the presence of silvery-gray scales throughout the forewing and a lack of brown pigmentation. The habitus is nearly indistinguishable from N. pisoniae specimens collected in the Bahamas, but it lacks the thick, dark gray band on the outer side of the first labial palpomere that is present in N. pisoniae . In the male genitalia, the most obvious difference is the arrangement of setae on the sacculus: they are thick and parallel in a comb-like row, twelve to fourteen in number, whereas the most similar species have a few thin setae ( N. kinzelella, N. pisoniae) or numerous rough, irregularly disposed setae ( N. bifidella). Nealyda grandipinella also differs by the conical shape of the uncus that terminates in circular scales, a straight, broad phallus with four terminal teeth, and valvae that are medially constricted, with the distal half broad, laterally curved, and lemon shaped. In related species, the uncus is truncate, the phallus is narrow and curved without teeth, and the terminal expansion of the valva is narrower and not distinctly bent laterad. In the female genitalia, the ductus bursae is 33% longer than the corpus bursae, and the signum is curved, hook-shaped, and 1/5 as long as the corpus bursae. Congeners have the ductus bursae and corpus bursae subequal in length. In most other species, the central spine of the signum is 1/7 or less the length of the corpus bursae. Nealyda bifidella has a spine 1/3 the length of the corpus bursae and distinct lateral granular arms of the signum, but the ductus bursae has a distinct membranous swelling halfway along its length.</p><p>Description, Adult. Head (Fig. 2A). Labial palps slightly rounded and stout. Outer side light gray, with dark gray banding at apex, base of third segment, and distal end of second segment. Inner side with suffusion of white scales proximal to the frons and dark gray scales on opposite side. Vertex with broad, rounded scales that widen towards apex, smaller and more linear anteriad; scales dark gray subapically, only reaching the margin in more linear scales, pale gray on margin. Antennal scape light gray with black band at apex. Basal third of antenna with alternating gray and dark gray flagellomeres, becoming completely gray in distal two-thirds. Eyes light gray. Variation in intensity of irroration, nearly absent in some specimens. Silver or whitish ocelli.</p><p>Thorax. Dorsal surface of thorax with broad light gray scales with thin white band at apex.</p><p>Wings (Fig. 1A). Basal half of forewing with gray scales with rounded white apex. Antemedial fascia wide, black, followed by thin white fascia. Medial area with gray and white scales similar to those of basal half of wing. Postmedial fascia diffuse black, with lateral pointed projection of black scales near costa. Elongate, lateral patch of black scales near inner margin. White irroration near apex, diffusing into linear, dark gray scales with white apex. Terminal fringe dark gray. Hindwings with medial cleft extended less than a third of the wing’s length. Light gray, infuscated at apex.</p><p>Pregenital abdomen. Scales similar to those on thorax. Tuft of yellow-white setae extending beyond final tergite to cover genital opening and valvae.</p><p>Legs. Coxa and femur of prothoracic legs with scales light gray with dark gray suffusion on anterior surface. Scales on posterior side yellow white. Tibia light gray with three dark-gray bands on distal side; epiphysis present. First tarsomere long, light gray with two black bands on distal side. Other tarsomeres dark gray at base and becoming light gray at apex. Mesothoracic legs with coxa cream colored, pattern otherwise similar to front legs except banding indistinct. Two lateral spurs arising one slightly above the other near distal end of tibia. Metathoracic legs with coxa and femur yellow grayish white with large, diffuse, light-gray spots. Tibia light gray near base, distally dark gray with four lateral spurs. Medial pair with inner spur more than 2 times the length of outer spur, extended to distal end of tibia in both sexes, becoming slightly broader at apex. Second pair of spurs subequal in length, slightly shorter than shorter medial spur, at distal end of tibia. First tarsomere dark gray with two yellow-white bands, one at base and one at apex; other tarsomeres dark gray.</p><p>Male genitalia (Fig. 3A). Valvae slightly bulbous at base, with many microtrichia, becoming constricted medially and expanding to lemon shape with slight upturned point at corona. Cucullus with microtrichia, most dense at corona. Sacculus bluntly rounded, about half the length of valvae, with strongly sclerotized apex and small blunted projection. Apex of sacculus with thick, comb-like setae. Vinculum band shaped, terminating shortly before tegumen. Uncus broadly conical, with many long microtrichia. Four large, circular scales at apex about 0.25x size of uncus, extending to about the same length as the valvae. Tegumen trapezoidal with few microtrichia, extending slightly longer than length of uncus. Gnathos thin, semicircular. Phallus ~ 0.25 mm, ankylosed, spinose.</p><p>Female genitalia (Fig. 4A). Corpus bursae broadly ovular. Signum a slightly curved hook, about 0.25x length of corpus bursae. Ductus bursae relatively narrow and straight, ~ 1 mm, lacking any sclerotization. Ductus seminalis arising from posterior portion of ductus bursae. Ostium bursae funnel shaped. Papillae anales large, elliptical, heavily sclerotized, ~ 0.33 mm, with many long microtrichia, some extending the length of papillae anales.</p><p>Immature stages. Unknown.</p><p>DNA barcode.
