Distribution.
Herre & Myers (1937)
obtained a single specimen from
Singapore
and commented that it had an aberrant barring pattern, but provided no location details; Central Catchment Nature Reserve — Nee Soon Swamp Forest (

Remarks.
Ng HH & Tan HH (2010)
only recorded this species as they listed species located from reservoirs. This species can be distinguished from its congener (
P. partipentazona
) that is also present and non-native to
Singapore
, on basis of the width of black bars (vs. slimmer), depth of body (vs. less deep), and larger overall adult size (vs. smaller).
