Remarks

This species was described from two males and three females. Huggert (1977) found two males and one female syntype, designating one male as the lectotype of D. saxatilis . The lectotype is mounted on a card; the left wings and left antenna are mounted on a microslide on the same pin. Huggert considered that two of the paralectotypes were not conspecific with T. saxatilis and designated one the holotype of Trichopria pseudosaxatilis q. v. and the other the holotype of T. nirva q.v.
