Diagnosis.
This and the next two new species have very similar uniform brown facies, finely fasciated darker in a manner typical of the genus. Diagnosis is best made on characters of male genitalia, and is presented in the description below. D. indentata has a strong pair of additional coremata between segments 3 and 4. The male genitalia resemble those of D. petras.

Geographical range. Borneo.
