Neocerdistus is based on the presence of lamellae on the female ovipositor and these are clearly visible in one photo. This complex of species and genera is in need of major revision, like most Oz asilids, and I suspect Neocerdistus will become a junior synonym. No male characters have been used to define the genus.
