Remarks. -
Up to now, the species was known only by the female holotype. In one female (C_Helb8773), the right foreleg is irregularly developed. Its tibia does not have a tympanic organ or dorsal black tubercles (Fig. 2 View Fig. 2 ).
Redescription. -
General characters as genus.
Male. Fastigium frontis elongated horizontally (Fig. 2 View Fig. 2 ), mandibles each with one long (2.1-2.8 times as long as pronotum) process (tusk) (Figs 1 View Fig. 1 , 2 View Fig. 2 ; Table 1 View Table 1 ). Pronotum weakly granulated. Fore and mid femora ventrally with 3 spines, hind femora with 4 spines at anterior edge. Fore tibiae dorsally with 2-3 large, black, blunt spine-like tubercles at the anterior and two small tubercles at the posterior edge, ventrally with ca. 6 spines on both sides, mid tibia dorsally with 1-2 spines on posterior edge, ventrally with ca. 6 spines on both sides, hind tibia with ca. 8 spines on all edges, the dorsal larger than the ventral spines. Mirror cell in left tegmen triangular with broadly rounded distal tip, on right tegmen larger, subquadratical (Fig. 3 View Fig. 3 ). Stridulatory file on lower side of left tegmen with ca. 130 regularly spaced teeth (inter-tooth interval 20-23 µm; Fig. 4 View Fig. 4 ; n=1 file). Supraanal plate transverse, distally rounded. Subgenital plate elongated, with ca. 1 mm long styli. Cerci with internal subapical spine and blunt apical process directed very slightly inwards.
Female. General characters as genus and male. Mandibles each with one long (0.8-0.9 times as long as pronotum), slightly upcurved process (tusk). Subgenital plate transverse, at the end straightly cut and distally slightly notched in the middle.
Coloration. Head with tusks and pronotum chestnut (tusks becoming darker towards the tips); legs yellowish, but knees, tympanic organ and tubercles in the fore tibia and larger spines in all legs black. Tegmina as in D. nitidus (see below). In some animals, the anterior and central lower parts of the paranota are brighter and more yellowish than the other parts.
