Neumania heterocrus can be distinguished by the sexual dimorphism in leg IV. Neumania absentiuos can be distinguished by P-1 without seta and genital plates close to Cx-IV. Neumania vietnamica can be distinguished by the different swimming setae in leg IV. A key to the members of Neumania form China is provided.
