Taxonomic remark From Shear, 2018: The taxonomic position of this species [D. gigantea, the type species] from the Dzhungarsky Mountains of eastern Kazakhstan is questionable. Originally described as an anopsobiid, some morphological characters (biarticulate tarsi on all legs, coxal pores on legs 11–15, some characters of the peristome) support a placement in tribe Zygethobiini of Henicopidae (Koch & Edgecombe 2008). However, Zapparoli & Edgecombe (2011) list it as an anopsobiid, and indeed the species lacks ocelli, and an acute spine of the 15th coxa is present. Farzalieva et al. (2004) suggest that D. gigantea may be a relict sister-group of all other anopsobiids, but this is not borne out by the morphological phylogenetic analysis of Koch & Edgecombe (2004), in which a strict consensus cladogram and a most parsimonious cladogram both show D. gigantea and Zygethobius pontis grouping with other henicopines, not with anopsobiines. [details]
