Remarks

• Systematics: The presence of platelike 4th and 5th lobes and the arrangement of the perivulvar pores in two elongate clusters seem to differentiate this species from all other species of the genus. It appears to resemble P. proteus to some extent (McKenzie, 1945).
• Structure: Body oval to circular with a wide, rounded pygidium, with median lobes (L1) each with 1 notch on each side and apically pointed, L2 and L3 similar in shape and smaller; body length 0.58-0.92 mm, width 0.51-0.67 mm. Submarginal ducts on prepygidium numerous, 25-46 ducts each side. Submedian ducts absent. (Henderson, 2011)
• General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration by McKenzie (1945).
