Paratype CUB, geounit Thailand [details]
From editor or global species database
Diagnosis Differs from all other Desmoxytes species by the combination of the following characters: paraterga knife-like; lateral sulcus (ls) of gonopod shallow; lamina lateralis (ll) separated into two ridges by a deep and wide furrow; process (plm) of lamina medialis long and thin, lamellar, tip dentate or crenate; distal lobe (dlm) of lamina medialis quite long, tip directed ventroanteriad; caudal margin of hypoproct concave or truncate. [details]

Distribution It is considered to be endemic species for Thailand [details]

Remark This species exhibits some variation in the gonopods: the tip of process (plm) of lamina lateralis is dentate in some specimens, crenate in others.  [details]
