Comments.

Several females originally thought to possibly be Dinaraea curtipenis ( Klimaszewski et al. 2013b) were later determined to be Dinaraea subdepressa (Bernhauer). However, we found another specimen from NB that proved to be a female of Dinaraea curtipenis . All external characters agree with those of the males. Here, we illustrate the female spermatheca, tergite, and sternite VIII for the first time (Figs 182-184).
