description: <i>Chrysopodes</i> Subgenus <i>Neosuarius</i> Before the publication of this study, 19 species were assigned to <i>Chrysopodes</i> subgenus <i>Neosuarius</i>; 17 were listed in the “Neuropterida Species of the World” on-line catalogue (Oswald 2007) and an additional two were recently described (Tauber and Tauber, 2010; see Table 1 here). Five of the listed species [<i>C</i>. (<i>N</i>.) <i>apurinus</i> <i>, C</i>. (<i>N</i>.) <i>crassipennis</i> <i>, C</i>. (<i>N</i>.) <i>divisus</i> <i>, C</i>. (<i>N</i>.) <i>placitus</i> <i>,</i> and <i>C</i>. (<i>N</i>.) <i>poujadei</i>] do not fit the new, restricted definition of the subgenus proposed here; they are removed from the subgenus and will be treated elsewhere. Specimens of <i>Chrysopodes</i> (<i>Neosuarius</i>) <i>karinae</i> Freitas and Penny, 2001, were not made available. Thus, the species’ taxonomic placement is unconfirmed. As a result of the current study, <i>Chrysopodes</i> subgenus <i>Neosuarius</i> now includes ten species that express the following suite of traits: (i) mandibles that are broad throughout, not only at the base (Fig. 10); (ii) mesal margin of left mandible with rounded, knob-like projection (Fig. 10); (iii) mesal margin of right mandible rounded, without a knob (Fig. <b>Table &amp;lcedil;.</b> Species assigned to <i>Chrysopodes (Neosuarius)</i> before the publication of this study (as listed in Oswald 2007) and their taxonomic status after the study.
