Amended diagnosis

Males of N. weinmanni resemble those of N. yupanquii by having an embolus with an acute angulation to palpal organ axis, developed prolateral superior keel, and intermediate keel denticulate and continuous. Nonetheless, N. weinmanni differs from N. yupanquii by having a comparatively well developed and elongated prolateral inferior keel, intermediate keel emerging below spermatic pore keels, intermediate keel basally denticulate, and absence of an apical keel and median dorsal granular area (comparatively developed and shorter prolateral inferior keel, intermediate keel emerging between spermatic pore keels, intermediate keel overall denticulate, median dorsal granular area extending over dorsal surface, and developed and denticulate apical keel in N. yupanquii ). Females of N. weinmanni resemble those of N. parvior stat. rev. et comb. nov. by having spermathecal striae converging in a complete arc and absence of ventral receptacles. Nevertheless, N. weinmanni differs from N. parvior by having rectangular spermathecae, rectangular guard plate, and spermathecal striae unordered (irregular pentagon-shaped spermathecae, I-shaped guard plate, and spermathecal striae comparatively more ordered into a horizontal orientation in N. parvior ).
