Dilyta aleevae Paretas-Martínez et al., 2011 a: 31 . Type: deposited in ZIN (examined).

Diagnosis

Dilyta aleevae is mainly characterized by a lack of punctures on the posterior part of the metasoma; female antenna with F1 slightly shorter than pedicel, F1 longer than F2, F2 slightly longer than F3 and F4, F3 subequal to F4, a slight clavation from F5, and sensilla beginning on F6 (Fig. 6.1); male antenna with F1 longer than pedicel and slightly arched, F1 longer than F2 and F3, F2 subequal to F3, F3 shorter than F4, F1 as long as F4, a slight clavation from F4, and sensilla beginning on F6. It is similar to D. rathmanae Menke & Evenhuis, 1991 but can be differentiated by the proportions of the flagellomere (F1 is longer than F2, F2 is slightly longer than F3 or F4, and F3 is subequal to F 4 in D. alevae females (Fig. 6.1), while F1 is almost double the length of F2, F3 or F4, and F2 or F3 is subequal to F 4 in D. rathmanae females (Fig. 6.4); and F1 is longer than the pedicel in D. alevae males, but subequal to the pedicel in D. rathmanae males).
