Key to adult females of Neotoumeyella species (adapted from Kondo and Williams 2009)

1. Dorsal microducts of two types: i) very large sclerotic pores (up to 43 μm in diameter) with a central microduct scattered throughout, in groups of 3–6 pores “like in a rosette” around body margin; plus, ii) smaller microducts, of the normal type (not associated with a sclerotized plate) present. Ventral tubular ducts without a terminal filament....... N. ferum (Hempel) , comb. nov.

— Dorsal microducts of one type: i) small, normal type of microduct (not associated with a large sclerotized plate) present. Ventral tubular ducts with a terminal filament............... 2

2(1). Ventral tubular ducts scarce, of one type ............................................ 3 — Ventral tubular ducts abundant, of more than one type ................................ 5

3(2). Ventral tubular ducts present around mouthparts and often near antennae. Spiracular pore band abruptly broadening just before stigmatic areas (up to 30 pores wide). Anal ring with six setae.................................. N. sonorensis (Cockerell and Parrott)

— Ventral tubular ducts absent from around mouthparts and antennae. Spiracular pore band narrow throughout (2–6 pores wide). Anal ring with 8–10 setae............................. 4

4(3). Multilocular pores abundant in mid-ventral region of mesothorax. Stigmatic setae subequal in length..................................... N. cephalanthi Kondo and Williams

— Multilocular pores absent from mid-ventral region of mesothorax. Stigmatic setae not subequal in length, median setae much longer than lateral setae. N. caliensis Kondo and Williams

5(2). Discoidal pores widespread over entire dorsum, except for a narrow submarginal band. Ventral tubular ducts present only up to area around posterior spiracular pore band. N. cerifera (Ferris)

— Discoidal pores present around anal plates and extending only to mid-dorsum. Ventral tubular ducts present submarginally up to areas of anterior spiracular pore band.................................................................... N. leucaenae (Cockerell)
