Systematics: Parlatoria hydnocarpus is close to P. machili, but differs in the shape of pygidial lobes, by dorsal ducts more numerous and by lacking long antenna setae. It is also close to P. proteus, but differs by the shape of antenna, by having few perivulvar pores and by the lateral region of the mouth with small dermal pellet tubercles (Hu, 1986J).
Structure: Adult female body almost round, 0.9 mm long, broadest at metathorax, 0.31 mm wide. Median lobes rounded apically, once notched on each side, with a pair of basal paraphyses. 2nd and 3rd lobes not bilobulate, each with 2 sclerotized bars at the base. Dorsal ducts few, present on the marginal or submarginal region of 3rd to 8th abdominal segments (Hu, 1986J).
General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration by Hu (1986J).
