Key to species of Nothotrioza

1 Forewing ( Fig. 2 C) with vein Rs weakly curved, almost straight; cell cu1 relatively small and flat, distance between apices of veins M3+4 and Cu1a about as long as that between apices of veins Cu1a and Cu1b, and distance between apices of vein Cu1a and Cu1b about 5.0 times as long as length of vein Cu1b. On Malpighiaceae ................................... N. tavaresi

- Forewing ( Figs 2 A, B) with vein Rs strongly curved; cell cu1 relatively large and high, distance between apices of veins M3+4 and Cu1a around 0.6 times as long as that between apices of veins Cu1a and Cu1b, and distance between apices of vein Cu1a and Cu1b about 2.6 times as long as length of vein Cu1b. On Psidium spp. ( Myrtaceae ).................................. 2

2 Male paramere, in profile, with convex, slightly undulate hind margin ( Fig. 3 H). Distal portion of aedeagus with small apical hook ( Fig. 3 I). Nymphal caudal plate with V-shaped hind margin ( Figs 2 D, 4F). On Psidium cattleianum ...... N. cattleiani

- Male paramere, in profile, with angular lobe slightly proximal from the middle at hind margin ( Fig. 3 E). Distal portion of aedeagus with large apical hook ( Fig. 3 F). Nymphal caudal plate with U-shaped hind margin ( Figs 2 E, 4E). On Psidium myrtoides .......................................................................................... N. myrtoidis
