Systematics: Pseudoparlatoria browni seems nearest to P. occulata from which it differs in the larger size, number and arrangement of the dorsal macroducts on pygidium and in position of anal opening which appears much nearer to pygidial margin than is characteristic of P. occulata (McKenzie, 1963).
Structure: Slide-mounted adult female 1.0 mm long and 0.80 mm wide, turbinate. Pygidium with median lobes well developed, once-notched on each side, widely separated, and with paired gland spines between them which present a forked appearance; 2nd and 3rd lobes smaller than median ones, but well developed and distinctly bilobulate (McKenzie, 1963).
General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration by McKenzie (1963).
