Type species: Notioantilogiusa rara sp. nov.

Diagnosis. Similar to Aloconota , but with spermatheca more similar to that of the species of the tribe Bolitocharini than to the genus Aloconota and the ligula is separated in 2 very divergent lobes, fig. 26, and not in 2 parallel lobes as in Aloconota , fig. 14.

Description. 11 antennomeres, temples divergent posteriorly, pronotum narrower in front than posteriorly, with pubescence direct to the posterior on straight line, 2 basal furrows of the abdomen; wingless genus; labial palpi 3-jointed, ligula separated in 2 very divergent lobes, fig. 26, a little leaning paraglosse in front, maxillary palpi 4-jointed, galea a little longer than lacinia, fig. 28, trapezoidal mentum with smaller base a little deeply arched posteriorly, fig. 27; mesosternal process acute, extending two-thirds of the length of the mesocoxae, tarsal formula 4-5-5, first metatarsomere as long as the 2 preceding together. Spermatheca, fig. 25.

Etymology. The female name of the new genus means “What is southern contradiction” from the ancient Greek νότιος = southern, αντιλογία = contradiction and ούσα = what it is. The contradiction consists of the form of the spermatheca typical of the tribe Bolitocharini in a body with characters of the tribe Athetini .
