Comments: The female of D. shimbanus is similar to those of D. paulyi Olmi, 1991, grossus 2OPL, ƻoo4, orophilus (Benoit, 1950), daviesi Olmi, 2009, yemenensis Olmi & Van Harten, 2006, and erraticus (Turner, 1928). The main difference concerns the occipital carina: incomplete in D. shimbanus, complete in all other species.
