Distribution. South Africa, Madagascar.
Remarks. The bifid condition of ventral setae is unique among Afrotropical micracidines and is the most reliable character matching the molecular data. Some species related to D. ignotus has an extended flange on the elytral apex, but they all have bifid setae and are therefore not Pseudolanurgus . The South African clade of species consist of the type species and one more known species, and several very similar undescribed species, suggesting a recent recolonization of the mainland (see Fig. 46).
