Diagnosis. D. irrorata can be externally recognized by forewing white and slightly yellow, with a grey oblique band from 2/3 of inner margin to apex, along the inner edge of the band with a yellow line, basal half diffused with grey spots; hindwing pale yellow in male and white in female, sometimes with a grey band near outer margin. It can be further characterized by male genitalia with an apically bifurcated gnathos, valvae with a well-developed projection that has setae on apical half, aedeagus without cornutus; female genitalia with a short and membranous ductus bursae, copulatory pouch with an elliptical signum.
