Etymology. — The species name refers to the lower weight of this earthworm compared to other similar species of the genus.

Diagnosis. — Diporodrilus minor can be distinguished from Diporodrilus omodeoi and Diporodrilus bouchei by the position of the clitellum in segments XXIII-XXXI(XXXII), from Diporodrilus rotundus sp. nov, Diporodrilus minor sp. nov., Diporodrilus meridionalis sp. nov. and Diporodrilus jorgei sp. nov by the presence of a genital papillae in XXXV but not in XXXII or XXXIV, and from Diporodrilus telti sp. nov by the lower average weight (1.7 g vs. 2.7 g) ( Table 2).

COI uncorrected average pairwise distances and topology of multilocus molecular phylogenetic trees supports the status of Diporodrilus minor sp. nov. as independent from other morphologically related species.
