Body dark–brown, elongated, with very coarse punctures and wrinkles. Length: 15.2 mm , maximal width: 6.3 mm . Head flattened, with rectangular apical portion and convex, bilobate eyes. Dorsal surface of head with coarse punctures and dense, yellow-brown tomentum, arranged in dense and transverse bands. Head between slightly extended antennal bases with thin longitudinal line. Labrum brown, slightly pubescent, shiny. Clypeus brown, transverse, shiny. Cheeks with dense yellowbr own pubescen ce. An ten n ae sh or t an d relatively massive, reaching behind middle of elytra, with relatively long row of apical hairs on inner side, resembling a brush. Basal antennomere massive, with coarse punctures and pubescence, antennomeres 3-5 with white basal pubescence. Pronotum dark-brown, subcylindrical, covered with small irregular spots of yellow-brown pubescence. Lateral disc with very coarse punctation and transverse, irregular, coarse wrinkles. Basal angles of pronotum are not visible from above. Scutellum small, with rounded apex and impressed, long, middle line. Pars stridens almost completely covered with pronotum. Elytra almost parallel-sided, convex dorsally, with distinct, slightly raised shoulders hump. Elytra dark-brown. Punctation very coarse and dense, with short wrinkles, not arranged in longitudinal rows. Apex of each elytron rounded. Ventral surface of body covered with dense, grey and yellow-brown lateral pubescence. Legs relatively short and massive, covered with small spots of yellow-brown pubescence. Male unknown. Differential diagnosis. Regarding the shape of the body, the new species is similar to other two species, distributed in Borneo, P. scincus ( Fig. 2 ) and P. deceptor ( Fig. 3 ), but differs from them by the presence of two large irregular transverse bands on the elytra. Etymology. This species is named after my friend and colleague Alexey Shavrin ( Daugavpils , Latvia ).
