Neoheegeria zyziphi Bagnall, 1924: 629 View in CoL .

This species remains known only from the damaged and distorted type series, comprising three females and two males ( Mound 1968: 89), apparently collected at Paresnath, West Bengal. The lectotype male has the fore femora swollen and slightly angulate, and the pronotum is also swollen but with no sculpture lines visible. The mesonotal lateral setae are capitate and about 50 microns long, and tergites II–VII each have an extra pair of curved setae anterior to the first pair of sigmoid wing-retaining setae .
