Three species that Navás described - Leucochrysa (Nodita) azevedoi Navás, 1913, Leucochrysa (Nodita) camposi (Navás, 1933) and Leucochrysa (Nodita) morenoi (Navás, 1934) - have received recent taxonomic attention. All three have many similar external features; indeed Navás himself, as well as subsequent authors, have confused the species with each other. Here, (a) misidentifications are corrected; (b) a neotype of Leucochrysa azevedoi is designated; (c) Leucochrysa (Nodita) morenoi, previously synonymized with Leucochrysa (Nodita) camposi, is recognized as a valid species [Reinstated status] All three species are redescribed and illustrated, with special emphasis on the types. Leucochrysa (Nodita) azevedoi was found to be relatively common in agricultural areas along Brazil's Atlantic coast. The two other species are known only from their type localities: Leucochrysa (Nodita) camposi - coastal Ecuador, and Leucochrysa (Nodita) morenoi - Quito, Ecuador.

纳瓦斯描述的三个物种——白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）阿泽维多伊纳瓦斯，1913年；白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）坎波西（纳瓦斯，1933年）；以及白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）莫雷诺伊（纳瓦斯，1934年）——最近受到了分类学上的关注。这三个物种都有许多相似的外部特征；事实上，纳瓦斯本人以及后来的作者都曾将这些物种相互混淆。在此，（a）纠正了错误鉴定；（b）指定了白晶金蛉阿泽维多伊的新模式；（c）白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）莫雷诺伊，此前被同义化为白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）坎波西，现被确认为一个有效物种[恢复地位]。对这三个物种都进行了重新描述和绘图，特别强调了模式标本。发现白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）阿泽维多伊在巴西大西洋沿岸的农业地区相对常见。另外两个物种仅在其模式产地被知晓：白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）坎波西——厄瓜多尔海岸；以及白晶金蛉（诺迪塔）莫雷诺伊——厄瓜多尔基多。
