Based on the similar chaetotaxy and shape of the male sternites VII–VIII and the similar structure of the aedeagus, D. aqiang belongs to the D. malaisei species group and is most similar to D. praefigens Assing, 2015 . It is distinguished from other species of the group by the more modified setae in the postero-median impression of the male sternite VIII and the longer ventral process of the aedeagus, from D. praefigens also by the somewhat smaller body size, the shorter antenna and the more slender pronotum. For illustrations of the species of the D. malaisei group see Assing (2015) and Feldmann et al. (2014).</p><p>Distribution and natural history.

The new species is distinguished from D. scabripennis by the darker coloration of body, the finer punctation of the head and pronotum, the fully developed hind wings and the differently shaped ventral process of the aedeagus. For illustrations of D. scabripennis see Assing &amp; Feldmann (2014).</p><p>Distribution and natural history. The type locality is situated in Tanshan Park to the north of Nanping, northern Fujian.
