The paratype has reddish-yellow legs except brown on the last three tarsomeres of the fore legs and all tarsomeres of the mid and hind legs; abdominal tergites 1–3 without white pruinose patches laterally. Comments. Neodiogmites lanei can be easily distinguished from the others species of Neodiogmites by the pronounced base of the antennae, a characteristic that is not found in any other species of the genus.
