| Comment | Synonymy: Listed as synonym of D. magna by Storr 1983 but recently “rediscovered” by genetics (the NK population in Smith et al. 2011, Paul Doughty, pers. comm. 2 Apr 2014). Not listed by COGGER 2000, nor COGGER 2014. Distribution: has been (erroneously?) reported from Queensland and the Northern Territory (e.g. in COGGER et al. 1983). For a map see Melville et al. 2019: 41 (Fig. 14). |
| Etymology | Named after Margaret Butler, wife of Mr W.H. Butler who collected the holotype and much of the other material studied in this paper. |
