Synonymy: Examination of recent coelotine collections from Yunnan, China, with both male and female, shows that the female holotype of D. parabrunneus is in fact the same species as male holotype of D. incertus . As a result, the species D. parabrunneus is considered a junior synonym of D. incertus .
