The key to the males of the Neotropical
Deinodryinus
published by
Olmi & Virla (2014)
divides the species into two groups (see first couplet of the key to males), as follows:
1 Males
with antennal setae shorter than breadth of antennomeres (
Fig. 1C
)............................. 2 (
first group
)
– Males with antennal setae as long as, or much longer than breadth of antennomeres (
Fig. 1E
)........... 10 (
second group
)
D. hubeni
sp. nov
.
belongs to the first group, together with the following nine Neotropical species:
D. albopictus
Olmi, 1984
;
D. carpens
Olmi, 1984
;
D. hansoni
Olmi, 1991
;
D. irwini
Olmi, 1991
;
D. nigrorufus
Olmi, 1984
;
D. perlucens
Olmi, 1984
;
D. pseudobilobus
Olmi, 1984
;
D. sculptus
Olmi, 1995
;
D. vagans
Olmi, 1984
. Because of the face sculptured by longitudinal keels (
Fig. 1C
) and the paramere with a large inner branch wrapping the penis (
Fig. 2B
), the new species is similar to
D. albopictus
,
D. carpens
,
D. perlucens
,
D. pseudobilobus
and
D. sculptus
(
Figs 2A, C–F
). However, in
D. hubeni
the inner branch of the paramere is long, narrow and situated in proximal position (
Fig. 2B
), whereas in the other species it is short, broad and situated in distal or subdistal position (
Figs 2A, C–F
).
