Diplurodes indentata
Warren, 1897, Novit. zool., 4: 93.
Diagnosis. This and the next two new species have very similar uniform brown facies,
finely fasciated darker in a manner typical of the genus. Diagnosis is best made

indentata has a strong pair of additional coremata between segments 3 and 4.
The male genitalia resemble those of D. petras.

and one at 500m on G. Mulu, and one specimen is from lower montane forest
(1000m) on G. Mulu.
