Abstract

The candezei species group of Neohelota Ohta is revised. Six species are recognized, including one described herein, Neohelota jakli sp. nov., from Indonesia (Sumatra). Helota claudiae Nguyen-Phung, 1985 is placed as junior synonym of Neohelota candezei (Ritsema, 1899), and Helota jocelynae Nguyen-Phung, 1985 as a junior synonym of Neohelota montana (Ohta, 1929). Lectotypes are designated for Helota krugeri Ritsema, 1900; Helota margarethae Ritsema, 1900; and Helota mariae Ritsema, 1899. A key for the candezei species group is provided. Figures of protibiae, genitalia, internal sacs, eighth abdominal tergites, and fifth abdominal ventrites are given for all species.
