Remarks: Hutchings and Rainer (1979) commented that N. (C.) torquatus and N. (C.) hemipodus were similar, but emphasized their differences: N. torquatus presents prostomium with palpode and multiple eyes, as well as fused notopodial lobes. N. hemipodus lacks a palpode, has only a pair of eyes and bilobed notopodia. García-Garza et al. (2012) redescribed N. hemipodus, mentioning the presence of palpode on the prostomium, and fused notopodial lobes on the first segments and on the posterior ones bilobed.
