Grover Collection , Allahabad, India or Cecidological Society of India , Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh . Dentifibula spinosa : Gagné 1973a: 500 (new combination). The male holotype and a female paratype were caught at a light in Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh , India . The male hypoproct is convex apically, the apical setae not shown; the gonocoxite has a sensory peg at its narrowed apex; the gonostylus is generally evenly cylindrical except for a unique, angular projection that issues abruptly from its basal half; and a slightly sinuate aedeagus that is shorter than the gonocoxites. The female is evidently not a Dentifibula . Its cerci lack the field of ventral, crowded, short sensoria characteristic of this genus and Lestodiplosis . Additionally, flagellomere necks are no more than half as long as the nodes, in contrast to being nearly as long in known female Dentifibula spp.
