A lectotype is proposed for N. papua and the papua species group is characterized. Members include N. papua, N. disrupta, N. trachydermis, and N. tyleri, the last two described as new. Attention is called to several samples of papua group populations that are too poorly known for allocation to described species or naming"--P. [1]
