Summary

Neolimnochares johnstoni n. sp., the first known nearctic member of this genus, is described from eastern North America based on adults and deutonymphs. The usefulness of the number and arrangement of platelets on the idiosomal dorsum and the degree of fusion of the femur and genu of the pedipalp for interpreting relationships among species of the genus Neolimnochares is discussed.
