Notonecta (Paranecta) disturbata Hungerford, 1926 Fig. 10 M Notonecta disturbata Hungerford, 1926: 13, 14, fig. 2 [original description]. Notonecta (Paranecta) disturbata; Hutchinson (1929): 363 [subgenus placement]. Diagnosis. Medium-sized, ~ 8 mm long. Vertex / synthlipsis ratio ~ 2.7. Lateral margins of pronotum straight and divergent. Genital capsule with two caudoventral protuberances; apex of paramere not bifurcated (Fig. 8 A). Taxonomic notes. It is most similar to N. pulchra Hungerford, 1926, which has the same size. Examination of the male genital capsule is needed to ensure correct identification in most species of this genus, and N. disturbata is no exception. In this species, the genital capsule has two caudoventral protuberances, and dorsal portion is acute (Fig. 8 A), opposing to N. pulchra, which has only one protuberance and the dorsal portion of the genital capsule rounded (Fig. 8 B).
