The genus Neogalea Hampson, 1906 is reviewed, including three species. N. sunia (Guenée, 1852) with Pan-American distribution, N. caracara Troubridge, 2020 known from the Florida Keys and Brazil and a new one restricted to a specific region of Brazil: Neogalea sororcula Becker, sp. n. (Semiarid or Caatinga biome). A key to species, diagnosis, descriptions, and illustrations for the three species are presented.
