Short Description
Original diagnose after BORSA, ARLYZA, HOAREAU & SHEN, 2017 [25664]: N. westpapuensis sp. nov. is distinguished from all other species previously under N. kuhlii by G at nucleotide 354 of the CO1 gene; it also possesses G at nucleotide site 294, a character that it shares with no other species than N. caeruleopunctata and C at nucleotide site 334, a character that is otherwise present in the Ryukyu maskray only. Based on Supplementary Table S2, N. westpapuensis sp. nov. is distinguished from other species previously under N. kuhlii by C at nucleotide site 733, G at nucleotide sites 76, 372, 528 and 753, and T at nucleotide sites 48, 57, 228 and 792 of the cytochrome b gene; it also has T at nucleotide site 327, a character that it shares with no species other than N. bobwardi sp. nov.
