Discussion. The types of Dimetrota revoluta and Datomicra vaciva agree completely with European specimens of Dochmonota rudiventris in external characters, and in the shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca.

Distribution. In North America Dochmonota rudiventris is known from Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories, Newfoundland, Massachusetts and Idaho.
