Very similar in almost every aspect to <i>D. verecundus</i> and <i>D. verecundior</i> Moret sp. nov., so the description will be limited to the few distinctive characters of this new species. Body length: 11.5–11.9 mm, as the biggest specimens of <i>D. verecundus</i>; head slightly broader with convex eyes; antennae thinner, the second antennomere 1.76 to 1.77 times as long as wide (1.41 to 1.65 times in <i>D. verecundus</i> and <i>D. verecundior</i> Moret sp. nov.); pronotum broader, 1.27 to 1.28 times as wide as long (1.13 to 1.24 times in <i>D. verecundus</i> and <i>D. verecundior</i> Moret sp. nov.); apical blade of the median lobe broader and more rounded at apex in dorsal view (Fig. 59); endophallus with a large sclerotized area at middle, and a reduced, almost obsolete squamose area near apex (two sclerotized areas of similar size in <i>D. verecundus</i> and <i>D. verecundior</i> Moret sp. nov.).</p><p><b>Habitat</b></p><p>Humid superpáramo at around 4500 m a.s.l.</p><p><b>Geographic distribution</b></p><p>Microendemic species, restricted to the Chimborazo volcano in the Western Cordillera.</p><p><b>Comments</b></p><p>The isolated population we raise here to species rank was initially assigned to <i>D. verecundus</i> by Moret (2005). There are more morphological differences between <i>D. verecundissimus</i> Moret sp. nov. and the pair of sister species <i>D. verecundus</i> and <i>D. verecundior</i> Moret sp. nov. than between the two latter, especially in the male aedeagus.</p>
