Noteworthy features of P. crinicornis are: (1) dark fronto-orbital plates, (2) distinctly brownish scape, orange-brown pedicel and yellow postpedicel (colour contrast between the scape and postpedicel is noticeable), (3) small ocellar spot and triangle, (4) hyaline wings, (5) glossy black abdomen. Male terminalia: Surstyli long (longer than epandrium). T6 without paired spots. Gonopods asymmetric, left gonopod slightly shorter than the right gonopod. Left gonopod bearing small lateral spinule.Aedeagal apodeme short and anteriorly rounded. S5 with straight posterior processes and medial spur. Holotype (examined): ^MAURITIUS : [no other details on label, e.g., date, collector] ( NRS ).
