Distribution.
This species is known from the states of Amazonas, Pará, and Bahia. Observed in iron ore caves from Pará, as well as in limestone caves of Bahia and Minas Gerais (the latter rarely), N. nisargani distribution has now increased to southeastern Brazil. Despite intensively sampling, only one specimen was recorded from Minas Gerais, in a cave of the Montes Claros municipality.
