Type locality

“ Thimphu Dzongkhag: road W of quarry near Bjimina ( 13 km SW of Thimphu), 2700 m a.s.l., 27°24’N 89°34’E ” ( Bhutan).

Differential diagnosis

The combination of the densely ribbed R1, the elevated, short R3 swelling situated close to the outer peristome, the large distance between the inner and outer peristomes is true for this species and for D. lunabulbus . However, the latter species is much smaller, it has a more undulated inner peristome, a larger distance between the inner and outer peristomes, and more widely-spaced R2 ribs. Dicharax vanderbijli has a smaller distance between the inner and outer peristomes, and has more lamella-like and widely-spaced ribs.
