Four species (personal data). No diagnostic characters distinguish Neoderina Bechyné from Diphaulacosoma . Therefore, the following new synonymy is proposed: Diphaulacosoma Jacoby, 1892a = Neoderina Bechyné, 1952 syn. n. Material examined: Neodera (Neoderina) crassicornis Bechyné, "Madagascar, Ambohitsitondrona, x-xii.47, Michel leg.", “typus” ♂ and “cotypus” ♀ (MNHN).
