This species is externally indistinguishable from
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. copelandi" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="copelandi">P. copelandi</taxonomicName>
except in the following male characters: metaventrite elevated anteromedially to form small but distinct median tubercle about one-fourth metaventral length behind mesocoxae (Fig. 21), metaventrite moderately flattened behind; posteroapical corner of male metatrochanter produced to form short, incurved flange (Fig. 32), the whole trochanter being somewhat parallelogram-shaped; aedeagus with sides weakly sinuate toward apex, apicodorsal ridges weakly divergent to apical corners; apical margin subtruncate to weakly emarginate; internal sac with broad band of about 18 short, sclerotized teeth. Female not definitely associated. TL 1.76-1.88mm; Max. width (EW) 0.61-0.71mm.

This species is very similar to
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. copelandi" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="copelandi">P. copelandi</taxonomicName>
, but the male metaventral process is distinct, being located closer to the meso- than the metacoxae. The metatrochanteral processes of the two are very similar, but that of
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. enigma" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="enigma">P. enigma</taxonomicName>
is wider and situated at or distad the midpoint of the
<normalizedToken originalValue="trochanters">trochanter's</normalizedToken>
posterior margin. Finally the aedeagus of
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. enigma" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="enigma">P. enigma</taxonomicName>
is slightly broader and with a much squarer, only weakly emarginate apex, with a distinctly spinose internal sac, which
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. copelandi" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="copelandi">P. copelandi</taxonomicName>
lacks. Dissected specimens have the internal sac variably everted, so it is difficult to compare available specimens directly. However, one dissected male excluded from the type series appears to have somewhat better developed (longer) and more numerous spines on the internal sac than the type. The apex of the aedeagus of this specimen is also slightly more emarginate than that of the type. However, generalizations are impossible with such limited material. Our main basis for limiting the type series to the single male from Jones Gap is the availability of molecular data for that specimen. Interestingly, the molecular data suggest that this species may be closely related to
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. myersae" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="myersae">P. myersae</taxonomicName>
, and this is supported to some extent by the presence of internal sac armature. In external morphology, however,
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. enigma" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="enigma">P. enigma</taxonomicName>
and
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. myersae" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="myersae">P. myersae</taxonomicName>
differ greatly, given the

well-developed eyes and wings in
<taxonomicName lsidName="P. enigma" pageId="15" pageNumber="120" rank="species" species="enigma">P. enigma</taxonomicName>
. Tentatively associated females have the pygidium broad and flat, the apical ventrite with strong transverse carina, concave behind, and the neck flattened beneath, but without median or lateral carinae.
