The description is very brief, but I believe that it can be referred to the species described above for several reasons. It isunlikely that Fabricius described R specimen of P. went htus as he would have noticed the suffused wings; his type could not have been a specimen of P. yerbwriensis as in that species the abdomen is not extensively reddish; hally,

It is interesting to note that a Danish factory was opened at Tranqnebar, the type locality, in 1620; Danish influence continued until 1845, except for a brief period of British Occupation from 1801 to 1814 (Encyclopaedia Britannica, 22, 14th edit., 1929). Fabricius probably came by his material of
