The female sternite II is weakly emarginate compared to the shape observed in  N. dubiaand  N. traubi. The male is easily recognized by the set of macrosetae anterior to sternite VI, and sternite II weakly emarginate.   Description.Measurements (mm, n=20, 10 ♂♂, 10 ♀♀). HFL: ♂0.45 (0.43–0.47), ♀0.52 (0.51–0.55); SL: ♂0.51 (0.49–0.53), ♀0.56 (0.55–0.58); TL: ♂0.49 (0.47–0.51), ♀0.52 (0.51–0.55); WL: ♂0.29 (0.27–0.31), ♀0.30 (0.28–0.33); WW: ♂0.17 (0.15–0.18), ♀0.18 (0.17–0.20). Thorax. Mesepimeron with 1–2 setae on each side. Wing with 1–3 setae on median vein. Metasternum ( Fig. 13B, E) like in  N. traubi. Female abdomen. Syntergite I+II ( Fig. 13A) like in  N. maai, except 35–56 setae on each plate of lateral lobe, and inner lateral margin moderately inclined. Dorsal connexivum ( Fig. 13A) like in  N. dubia, except as follows: with few short setae at middle of bare areas; row posterior to spiracle VI with one pair of setae in the middle as long as setae on cluster of setae around spiracle III. Lateral connexivum with free cluster of minute setae below spiracle III. Tergite VII ( Fig. 13A, C) like in  N. dubia, except 4–7 setae on each plate. Sternite II ( Fig. 2B, 13B) with posterior margin weakly emarginate, and longest lateral setae twice as long as shortest median setae; discal setae not in row. Sternite VII ( Fig. 2B) subtriangular and longer than wide; 8–13 setae on each plate. Epiproct ( Fig. 13A, C) like in  N. dubia. Male abdomen. Syntergite I+II like in  N. dubia, except 37–71 setae on each plate of lateral lobe. Ventral connexivum with segmental setae longer and thicker than other ventral setae but not twice the length, easily distinguishable. Sternite II ( Fig. 13E) with posterior margin weakly emarginate, and longest lateral setae longer than shortest median setae but not twice the length. Hypopygium ( Fig. 13D–E) with ventral setae like in  N. dubia; sternite VI straight or slightly curved, narrower and longer than half length of cercus; cluster of macrosetae anterior of sternite VI, 1–3 macrosetae longer than dorsal macrosetae of hypopygium but not twice the length. Genitalia ( Fig. 13F–H) like in  N. guerreroi  sp. n., except gonopod wider than in  N. guerreroi  sp. n., and dorsal margin of aedeagus similar to that of  N. falsispina  sp. n.   Distribution. Brazil( Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul), Paraguay( Fig. 17B).     Typelocality. Brazil, Mato Grosso do Sul, Corumbá, Base de Estudos do Pantanal.   Host.  Noctilio albiventris.   Type material.  HOLOTYPE ♀: Brazil: “ HOLOTYPE ♀/  Noctiliostrebla pantaneira/ Alcantara, Nihei & Graciolli”, “MZSP / Host.  N. albiventrisDesmarest/ Brazil, state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Corumbá, Base de Estudosdo Pantanal—UFMS [= Universidade Federaldo Mato Grosso do Sul] / 19°34’48.0”S, 57°01’15.1”W/  03.iii.2013/ D.M.C.

Many specimens of  N. pantaneira  sp. n.were collected on the same host individuals as  N. morena  sp. n. 2234219807 [199,1129,1718,1743] Brazil Base de Estudos do Pantanal Corumba 28 511 1 Mato Grosso do Sul holotype 2234219738 2013-03-03 MZSP D.
