Diagnosis. Male. Mandible with two apical teeth. Median clypeal lobe subtrapezoidal. Frons strongly coriaceous, densely punctuated. Ocellar triangle far from vertex crest. Vertex nearly straight. Metapectal-propodeal complex strongly rugulose. T2 with pair very shallow, small and rounded depressions, wholly covered by dense tuft of setae directed backward, depressions touching anterior margin tergite, distant each other about own diameter. Posterior hypopygeal margin straight. Genitalia: base of digitus setose; aedeagal ventral ramus sinuous and wide, apex filamentous directed outward; dorsal body with two pair of setay membranous, stout apical lobes, inner pair much bigger and setay, outer pair with vertical surface, base not membranous; aedeagal basal process elongate as filament; dorsal side of genital ring with median vumerange-shaped piece, slightly more protracted than ventral side. Female unknown.
Variations. Some specimens have variations in the depth and density of the depressions, shape paramere and margin of the dorsal body.
Remarks. Thirty-one specimens of D. punctatus were registered from Espírito Santo (Redighieri & Azevedo, 2006), and we add more 192 new ones. Additionally, we reidentified four specimens as D. napo by Redighieri & Azevedo (2004) as D. punctatus.
