( Figs 14 View FIGURES 14 – 19 , 31 View FIGURES 26 – 31 , 154–157 View FIGURES 150 – 157 )

Description. Male. Head and mesosoma black; metasoma dark castaneous. Mandible with two apical teeth; median clypeal lobe trapezoidal, median tooth triangular; frons coriaceous, punctate. Pronotal disc coriaceous. T2 with lateral depression composed tuft with dense seta directed toward T1, tubercle absente. Posterior hypopygeal margin weakly convex. Genitalia: paramere small in dorsal view, apex rounded, larger than basiparamere; aedeagal ventral ramus larger than dorsal body, wide, apex bifurcated; aedeagal dorsal body with two pairs apical lobes, outer pair with apex rounded in dorsal view, inner pair membranous; basal process long, narrow, slightly curved; basal process wide; apodeme extending beyond genital ring. Female unknown.

Variations. Paramere with apex weakly rounded in dorsal view; basal process shorter.

Remarks. This species is allocated in amana species-group by having the tergal process with lateral depression with pair of tuft directed toward T1 and with tubercles absent. This species has the tergal process similar to Dissomphalus amana sp. nov. However, the paramere of D. potyra sp. nov. is small, in dorsal view, the aedeagal ventral ramus with apex bifurcated and aedeagal dorsal body with basal process, whereas D. amana sp. nov. with paramere very wide, in dorsal view, the aedeagal ventral ramus with apex rounded and aedeagal dorsal body without basal process.
