Nelcyndana madagascariensis

Description

Nelcyndana madagascariensis (Distant, 1905d)

Nelcynda (sic) madagascariensis Distant 1905d: 35. (Fenerive, Madagascar)

Remarks.—The assignment of the species to Nelcyndana is questioned. A male specimen is needed to determine if the genitalia are representative of the genus (Duffels 2010; Marshall et al. 2018b). Until that time, the species remains assigned to the genus.

Distribution.—The species is known only from Madagascar (Metcalf 1963b). Distant (1905d) and Jacobi (1917) reported the species from Fénérive, western Madagascar.
