Etymology: The specific name is a patronym in honor of K.J. Guo, one of the collectors of the typeseries.
Diagnosis: This species is similar to D. anceps sp. nov.in having a similar atrim and triangular spermathecae, differing only in minor features in the female epigynum. This new specieshas a pair of long atrial ridges that extend posteriorly to the epigastric furrow (Fig. 180), while in D. anceps sp. nov.the atrial ridges are short and limited to the anterior part of the atrium (Fig. 37).
Description: Female ( holotype). Medium sized Coelotinae(Fig. 186). Total length 8.78. Dorsal shield of prosoma 3.95 long, 2.62 wide; opisthosoma 4.83 long, 3.37 wide. AMEsmallest, approximately half the size of ALE; posterior eyes subequal in size, slightly smaller than ALE ( AME0.09, ALE0.20, PME0.17, PLE0.17); AMEseparated from each other by their diameter, from ALE by slightly less than half of AMEdiameter; PME separated from each other by half of their diameter, from PLE by slightly less than PME diameter (AME-AME 0.09, AME-ALE 0.04, PME-PME 0.08, PME-PLE 0.15, AME-PME 0.15) (Fig. 187). Chelicerae with 3 promarginal and 2 retromarginal teeth. Labium with length and width subequal ( L/ W=1.04) (Fig. 188). Epigynal teeth absent; atrium small, with posteriorly extending anterior atrial margin; atrial ridges extending posteriorly to epigastric furrow; copulatory ducts indistinct from dorsal view; spermathecae short, broad, with slight lateral extensions; spermathecae widely separated by at least their width; speramathecalheads distinct, arising and extending distally (Figs 180-185). Male. Unknown.
Distribution: China (Yunnan: Lushui) (Fig. 541).
