Diagnosis. Males distinguished from those of mainland Australian species by having only clusters of spicules distally on the phallus, not distinct chitinous spines, and from the closely similar D. tasmanica by males having the lateral lobes on segment IX/X shorter than the tip of the abdomen; otherwise D. serrula closely resembles D. tasmanica .
