Doratura lukjanovitshi Kusnezov, 1929: 177

Diagnosis. The species is closely related to D. gravis ; it displays similar but more slender styles ( Fig. 26H View FIGURE 26 ) with the central tooth directed ventrad, and a very slim aedeagus (26D, E). The hind margin of the female pregenital sternite ( Fig. 20H View FIGURE 20 ) is straight. In rare cases it displays a very indistinct median notch.

Distribution ( Fig. 59 View FIGURE 59 ). We studied material from Mongolia and Russia (Central Siberia). Apparently, there are no records for further countries.

Remarks. Kusnezov inserted D. lukjanovitshi in the original description near D. ivanovi (= impudica ) and D. stylata . The identification of Doratura material from Mongolia by Dlabola (1965) as D. lukjanovitshi is correct. Dlabola figured the styles of this material, which resemble the styles of D. gravis . However, many specimens in his collection identified by himself as D. lukjanovitshi belong to D. stylata or D. gravis .
