Etymology. — This species is named in honour of Prof. Jorge Domínguez, renowned earthworm researcher who included this species in a molecular phylogenetics analysis for the first time.

Diagnosis. — Diporodrilus jorgei can be distinguished from Diporodrilus omodeoi and Diporodrilus bouchei by the position of the clitellum in segments XXIII–XXXII, from Diporodrilus rotundus sp. nov, Diporodrilus minor sp. nov., Diporodrilus meridionalis sp. nov. and Diporodrilus telti sp. nov by the position of the last genital papillae in XXXIV, and from Diporodrilus pilosus by the larger average number of segments (170 vs. 136) ( Table 2).

COI uncorrected average pairwise distances and topology of multilocus molecular phylogenetic trees supports the status of Diporodrilus jorgei sp. nov. as independent from other morphologically related species.
