The poorly known genus Nilionympha Ren and Engel, 2007 in the subfamily of Gumillinae is updated and revised based on the reexamination of the type specimens and description of a new species Nilionympha shantouensis sp. nov. from the Middle Jurassic Jiulongshan Formation of Daohugou, Inner Mongolia, China. A further comparison between Nilionympha and other gumilline genera is provided to corroborate the generic status according to the updated diagnostic characters of forewing. The species Nilionympha imperfecta Ren and Engel, 2007 is transferred to the genus of Enodinympha.
基于对模式标本的重新检视以及对采自中国内蒙古道虎沟中侏罗世九龙山组的新物种汕头尼氏蛾（Nilionympha shantouensis sp. nov.）的描述，对Gumillinae亚科中鲜为人知的尼氏蛾属（Nilionympha Ren and Engel, 2007）进行了更新和修订。根据更新后的前翅诊断特征，进一步比较了尼氏蛾属与其他Gumillinae属，以确证该属的分类地位。2007年的不完美尼氏蛾（Nilionympha imperfecta Ren and Engel）被转移至Enodinympha属。
