Type material.

Holotype. Costa Rica • Female, CNC; Guanacaste, Area de Conservación Guanacaste, Sector Santa Rosa, Bosque San Emilio , 10.8439, -85.6138; 300 m; 26.iv.1999; D. H. Janzen & W. Hallwachs leg.; Malaise trap; Voucher code: DHJPAR 0013185 GoogleMaps .

Diagnostic description.

F 15 comparatively sub-cubic, L / W 1.15 ×; scutellar disc smooth and shiny; propodeum with short carinae weakly defining an areola only on posterior half or less; T 1 and T 2 smooth; T 1 strongly narrowing near posterior margin, T 1 length 2.0 × its maximum width, and T 1 width at anterior margin 2.0 × T 1 width at posterior margin; ovipositor sheath length 1.15 × metatibia length; most legs dark brown to black; body length: 1.80 mm; fore wing length: 2.08 mm. Among all species with dark coxae and smooth T 1 and T 2, D. annychaverae is distinguished by shape of T 1, overall body sculpture, small body size and ovipositor sheath length. D. alanflemingi is morphologically similar but has F 15 comparatively much longer, T 1 comparatively thinner and with different shape, ovipositor sheath comparatively shorter (see key for better diagnosis of these two species). They also have different DNA barcodes.
