Note.
Ph. elba
was described by
Linnavuori (1973)
from northeastern
Sudan
(
Kassala
) and
Ph. adeiba
was described from the neighboring region of southeastern
Egypt
(Gabal Elba in Halayeb Triangle) (
Badawy
et al.
2011
). The synonymy is based on the characters of male genitalia: peculiar male anal tube, with lobe-shaped lateral margins; hind margin of pygofer distinctly convex; apical aedeagal processes narrow, rounded apically, well visible above the phallobase; ventral aedeagal hooks directed upwards (
Linnavuori 1973
, figs 67a, 67c;
Badawy
et al.
2011
, fig. 7).
