Variations. Body length between 2.73 and 4.10 mm ; LFW between 2.09 and 2.70 mm ; maximum wing width between 0.91 and 1.14 mm ; frons with punctures irregularly sparse; vertex crest slightly concave; lower mandibular tooth angulate; median carina of clypeus straight; setae of tuft of tergal process long; notaulus complete; propodeal disc weakly to strongly striate. Remarks. Dissomphalus daneus sp. nov. is similar to D. nepalensis because of the following characteristics: convex genital ring with angle of median region about 45º, aedeagal dorsal body wider basally, narrowing sharply apicad; dorsal outer lobe with laminar process; ventral outer lobe tubular and long, about 0.5 × as long as dorsal outer lobe; aedeagal ventral ramus with lateral margin straight, base as narrow as apex. However, D. daneus sp. nov. differs from D. nepalensis as follows: hypopygium with apex of median stalk abruptly dilated, lateral margin sinuous, posterior margin with sub-angulate invagination, corners angulate; aedeagal dorsal outer lobe with laminar process, its lateral surface wider than dorsal and ventral ones; ventral outer lobe slightly arched laterad, with apical margin sub-angulate; aedeagal ventral ramus surpassing middle of dorsal body and reaching base of apical lobe of dorsal body.
