Remarks.
Neotyphloceras crassispina hemisus differs from all other species and subspecies of the genus by the presence of abdominal spinelets; females are unique by the apical margin of sternum VII wide, and the contour of the distal margin rounded or slightly convex in the lower portion; males differ by a combination of characters in the genitalia ( López Berrizbeitia et al. 2015). Lareschi et al. (2003) cited G. griseoflavus as the name of the host for this species, but now it should be treated as G. chacoensis , following Braun and Patton (2015); it is also important to note that the correct name for the locality is "Los Tambillos," and not "Los Tombillos," as cited by these authors. All localities correspond to the Monte Desert of Mountains and Isolated Valleys eco-region.
