Dissomphalus manus Azevedo, 2003: 35 (♂, holotype from Espírito Santo, UFES, figs 44–46); Redighieri & Azevedo, 2006: 308.

Diagnosis. Male. Black; forewing subhyaline. Mandible with two apical teeth. Median clypeal lobe trapezoidal. Frons strongly coriaceous. Vertex nearly straight. T2 with very shallow lateral depression, tubercle pit-topped present, dense tuft of long setae, tubercle slightly closer median line than lateral margin of T2. Posterior hypopygeal margin straight. Genitalia: digitus with large basal projection; aedeagal ventral ramus longer than dorsal body, laminar, surface vertical, angled medially outward, apex dilated with sharp inner corner; dorsal body with two pairs apical lobes, outer pair angled medially outward, surface of apex scaled, with three teeth directed downward; inner pair large, stout, membranous, embracing outer pair both ventral and dorsally. Female unknown.

Variations. Aedeagal dorsal body with two or three teeth, as already reported for specimens from Sergipe by Redighieri & Azevedo (2006).

Remarks. Five specimens of D. manus were registered from Espírito Santo (Azevedo, 2003; Redighieri & Azevedo 2006), and we add more 16 new ones.
