Etymology
Etymology: The species name is derived from Latin word " catillus ", which means "small bowl, dish, plate", and refers to the broad, dish-shaped conductor; noun in apposition.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis: The male is similar to D. nudulus Wang 2003 in having a short conductor, a proximally originating embolus, and in lacking a patellar apophysis, but can be distinguished by the large, distally protruding cymbial furrow and the spoon-shaped median apophysis (Figs 62-63).
Description
Description: Male (holotype). Medium sized Coelotinae, total length 7.45 (Fig. 67). Dorsal shield of prosoma 4.10 long, 2.85 wide; opisthosoma 3.35 long, 2.10 wide. AME smallest, half the size of ALE; ALE largest; PME slightly larger than AME, PLE slightly smaller than ALE (AME 0.07, ALE 0.14, PME 0.09, PLE 0.12); AME separated from each other by their diameter, from ALE by 1.5 times AME diameter; PME separated from each other by approximately 1.5 times PME diameter, from PLE by slightly less than two times PME diameter (AME-AME 0.07, AME-ALE 0.10, PME-PME 0.12, PME-PLE 0.16, AME-PME 0.12) (Fig. 68). Chelicera with 3 promarginal and 2 retromarginal teeth. Labium longer than wide (L / W =1.16) (Fig. 69). Palp without a patellar apophysis; RTA more than half of tibial length, with a sharply protruding distal end; lateral tibial apophysis broad, close to RTA; cymbial furrow large, slightly less than cymbial length, with distal end slightly protruding beyond cymbium; conductor broad, short, with a large basal lamella and a dorsal apophysis; median apophysis spoon-shaped, elongated, free-standing along anterior edge; embolus long, filiform, proximal in origin, with thread arising at 6- o'clock-position, running half an oval, extending posteriorly to middle part of tibia and anteriorly coiling beyond distal part of bulb (Figs 62-66). Female. Unknown.

Distribution: China (Yunnan: Lushui, Fugong) (Fig. 535).
