Of course, everyone can be their own judge. Does the side of the pronotum look identical? (slightly better photo of N. albipennis posted here) Could Breuning have described a species in a new genus in the wrong tribe? ( of course ) I have two specimens identical in all features, colors and size to Ben's specimens. While there are a couple of remarkable similarities in the patterns of the elytra, the apparent difference in the lateral side of the pronotum, the difference in color, and the claws has me almost totally convinced that these species are different.

The side of the pronotum is different to your specimen. I had another look today.
