Diagnosis. The anterioapical portion of the forebasistarus of males have 6 to 8 long setae (see Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 d). The thorax is dark brown. The apical wing spot is similar to that of D. conformis but darker (see Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 c for example). The lateral portion of most of the abdomen and the entire final tergite is yellow.

Types. HAWAI‘I: Holotype ɗ (BPBM 6377) Upper Ōla‘a Forest, viii.1952, DEH ( Evenhuis 1982).

Material Examined. HAWAI‘I: ɗ has been studied from the BPBM: Ōla‘a Trail 18, vi.2006, KNM. 6 ɗ have been studied from the UHIM: 2 ɗ, Upper Ōla‘a Forest, vii.1956, DEH; ɗ, Kīlauea, viii.1958, JWB; 2 ɗ, Upper Ōla‘a Forest, viii.1952, DEH; ɗ, Kaiholena, Kohala Mountains, viii.1952, DEH. The following material is present at AMNH: ɗ, Volcanoes National Park, Ōla‘a Forest, near Pole 44, O132.7, AMCC 105701, 2.viIi.2001, PMO, CDS. The following material is in the Essig Museum of Entomology at UC Berkeley: ɗ, Tree Planting Road, O256.8; O201315; 11.vii.2004, PMO, MG.

Illustrations. Morphological structures of this species are depicted in multiple publications including: forleg ( Hardy 1965: 320, fig. 118a); phallus ( Kaneshiro 1976: 267, fig. 5c); terminalia, male, lateral ( Hardy 1965: 320, fig. 118c); wing ( Hardy 1965: 320, fig. 118c)

Discussion. This species is morphologically very close to D. conformis and the defining features are the long setae on the basitarsus.
