Diagnostic description.

T 1 mostly parallel-sided, its length medially ~ 2.5 × its width at posterior margin; T 2 transverse, its length medially 4.0–5.0 × its width at posterior margin; T 1 mostly sculptured on posterior 0.5; T 2 mostly sculptured, central smooth area very small; tegula white-yellow, clearly paler in color than yellow humeral complex; pro- and mesocoxae yellow-white or yellow; metacoxa mostly yellow with dark brown spot on anterior 0.3; most of metafemur and metatibia dark brown to black; body length and fore wing length: 2.63–2.85 mm. Among all species with T 2 at least partially smooth and pro- and mesocoxae pale, D. isidrochaconi can be distinguished by T 1 shape, T 2 shape and sculpture, and color of tegula, humeral complex, coxae, mesofemur and metatibia. Two species ( D. jennyphillipsae and D. robertofernandezi ) are very similar morphologically to D. isidrochaconi and can only be reliably separated by DNA barcodes (see comments and details under the diagnostic description of D. jennyphillipsae ).
