Description.
Colouration (
Fig. 4
). Body black. Lateral pronotal margin, pronotal epipleuron, stripe on outer part of corium, hypocostal lamina and laterotergirtes red. Antennomere 4 whitish, only on base and apex narrowly black. Red lateral stripe on corium occupying its costal margin, basally somewhat extended on corium, regularly widening towards apex of corium, ending just before corial apex.
Structure. Known only in macropterous form. Head wider, less elongate in front of eyes. Lateral pronotal margins very narrow, medially concave; callar lobe wider; strigil not developed. Labium slightly surpassing anterior margin of ventrite III. Profemora along their entire length with minute denticles ventrally and with two (rarely only one) larger teeth in apical part. Pygophore similar to
D. parvulus
sp. nov.
, only ventral half of ventral wall slighly gibbous in lateral view. Paramere (
Fig. 11
).
Punctation on pronotal lobe and scutellum distinct and dense, on clavus and corium dwindling in black colouration, only with sparse black punctures near inner margin of redcoloured margin of corium.
Pilosity. Body covered with semierect greyish hairs.
Measurements (all in mm). Males (n = 5). Body length 7.22 (6.80-7.67); head: length 0.98 (0.92-1.03), width (including eyes) 1.39 (1.35-1.43), interocular width 0.75 (0.70-0.81); lengths of antennomeres: 1 – 1.09 (1.03-1.13), 2 – 1.12 (1.03-1.19), 3 – 0.67 (0.65-0.70), 4 – 1.71 (1.67-1.73); pronotum: length 1.37 (1.24-1.48), width 2.41 (2.21-2.54); scutellum: length 1.12 (1.05-1.19), width 1.25 (1.19-1.40); corium: length 3.60 (3.35-4.00), width 1.34 (1.24-1.40).
Females (n = 5). Body length 8.01 (7.72-8.64); head: length 1.04 (0.97-1.13), width (including eyes) 1.50 (1.46-1.62), interocular width 0.75 (0.70-0.81); lengths of antennomeres: 1 – 1.23 (1.19-1.35), 2 – 1.19 (1.08-1.24), 3 – 0.79 (0.76-0.92), 4 – 1.80 (1.73-1.94); pronotum: length 1.37 (1.32-1.51), width 2.56 (2.43-2.75); scutellum: length 1.27 (1.19-1.35), width 1.39 (1.30-1.46); corium: length 4.02 (3.78-4.43), width 1.45 (1.40-1.57).
Variation.
The single male from
Sumatra
differs from the Siberut population by its distinctly smaller size. Its measurements are (all in mm): body length 5.83; head: length 0.76, width (including eyes) 1.19, interocular width 0.76; lengths of antennomeres: 1 – 0.92, 2 – 0.97, 3 – 0.59, 4 – 1.30; pronotum: length 0.97, width 1.94; scutellum: length 0.94, width 1.08; corium: length 2.92, width 1.19. However, more specimens from both
Sumatra
and Siberut are needed to evaluate these differences.
Differential diagnosis.
Similar to
D. villosus
(Breddin, 1901)
, known from
Laos
, Sumatra, and Sulawesi (
STEHLÍK 2005a
), which has a slightly narrower head and callar lobe but wider lateral margins of the pronotum. Both species also differ in the shape of the red stripe on the outer corial margin: it is distinctly narrowing towards the corial apex in
D. villosus
but widening towards the corial apex in
D. siberutensis
sp. nov.
Etymology.
Patronymic, named after the Siberut Island.
Distribution.
Indonesia
, Mentawai Islands (Siberut), and
Sumatra
