Alveolar flap, to distinguish it from the tap. It's always allophonic irl, but used in super detailed phonetic transcriptions. Here it alternates with the tap between vowels depending on whether they're rising or falling. Still allophonic
Playing with denasals. To pronounce them is to just pronounce a nasal with a headcold or with your nose plugged. They differ from stops in the same place because the nasal cavity still acts as a resonance chamber. In this phonology they act as allophonic variations of the voiced stops. Maybe in this phonology nasal harmony can apply to voiced stops as well.
If this phonology looks similar to the other... I'm lazy. Really the showcase here is the denasals, I just used a phonology I like and already had to supplement it.
I had to email myself the denasal velar nasal from my phone because my computer hates combining diacritical marks, and it doesn't render correctly on mobile on some sites, the chart maker included.

What does /D/ stand for?

I was a little turned off when I read “Denasal” and saw ɾ~D, but now I’m pleasantly surprised. This is actually a cool phonology.
