Taxonomy Notes: Nites atrocapitella is the only species of Nites which can be recognized on maculation. The others, in series, tend to show a distinctive uniformity of color and shading that makes it possible to determine individuals provided that adequate comparative material is at hand. For accurate determination of individual specimens genital characters should be examined.
