Preliminary remarks
Members of the genus Neomonoceratina can be classified into five groups based on the ornamentation of their carapaces ( Zhao & Whatley 1988): N. columbiformis group, N. iniqua group, N. koeningswaldi group, N. macropora group and N. spinosa group. The specimens investigated here belong to the N. columbiformis and N. iniqua groups. The N. columbiformis group is characterized by a smooth or finely punctate intercostal surface and includes N. columbiformis , N. mediterranea ( Ruggieri, 1953) , N. mediterranea malayensis Zhao & Whatley, 1988 . Conversely, the N. iniqua group is characterized by a reticulate surface consisting of polygon fossae, thin muri and finely punctate sola, fringed AB with small denticles. In the present material, N. iniqua ( Brady, 1868) , N. bataviana ( Brady, 1868) , N. delicata Ishizaki & Kato, 1976 , N. chenae Zhao & Whatley, 1988 are representatives of this N. iniqua group.
