Shouldn't D. plumipes male have plume-like thick hairs somewhere in its legs, like its name tells? They don't seem to be present here. |

Yes, that is correct. The legs are in bad position so the nice long hairs are not visible. Must be more careful with next pictures so the critical parts are visible ![]() Jari |

The black stripe on the dorsal surface of the the mid tibia is pretty characteristic for this species even if the plumose mid basitarsus isnt visible.
