Hypothesized placement.

Nannaria "Moores Springs" specimens are hypothesized to be closely related to Nannaria minor based on the following combination of gonopodal characters: Acropodite tip simple, blunt, directed medially with short distal zone. Prefemoral process thin, approaching length of acropodite. Wide basal zone when viewed anteriorly. Nannaria "Moores Springs" specimens differ from N. minor based on the following gonopodal characters: Telopodite basal zone with raised ridge (Fig. 120A View Figure 120 , red arrow), lacking in N. minor . Acropodite simple, lacking medial flange found in N. minor . Prefemoral process tip directed ventrally (Fig. 120B View Figure 120 , red triangle), not directed laterally as in N. minor .
