Similar Species: See other species in the genus Nepytia. In many cases, “… neither adults nor larvae sort into discrete groups that could be segregated into species when one looks at all the character sets (including DNA barcodes)”; further work is warranted - Chris Schmidt (pers. comm., 2025). Pinned specimens of related species. (Hint: select View by Region on the related species page.) Synonymy: lagunata Cassino & Swett, 1923 (Nepytia) - MONA 1983: 6904
