ABSTRACT
A species of Neomegalotomus is an occasional pest of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] in the neotropics, including in Brazil. It was known as Neomegalotomus parvus (Westwood); but the discovery of the type specimen of a species described earlier requires that the name be changed to Neomegalotomus simplex (Westwood), which becomes the correct name for the soybean pest.

Essa espécie era conhecida como Neomegalotomus parvus (Westwood); entretanto, a descoberta da espécie tipo de uma outra espécie, descrita anteriormente, requer que o nome seja trocado para Neomegalotomus simplex (Westwood), o que o torna o nome correto para essa praga da soja.
