D. bimucronatus can be distinguished from all other Dioxybracon species in lacking extensive mesopleural sculpture, striate sculpture on frons and submedial mesoscutal grooves, hind coxa without dorsal spine, lateral lamella of metasomal tergites 1 – 3 narrow, without emargination or strong expansion at level of tergite 3, posterior margin of tergite 6 narrowly and more or less deeply emarginate medially.</p><p>Male.

The two specimens from Aldabra differ in having the scapus black laterally but brownish medially, pedicellus brownish apically and flagellum slightly paler. This difference does not seem sufficient to warrant separate species status for the Aldabra specimens.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039CE477FFFA92153DA858FD6F27FD84	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
