Remarks: The male genitalia of this species are distinguished by the gnathos somewhat large subtrapezoidal, and blunt apically, and the aedeagus simple, without any ornamentation. The female genitalia are distinguished by the ductus bursae extremely long and not distinctly separated from corpus bursae. Species P. chengchenngensis Wang & Zheng, collected from Shaanxi Province, varies only slightly from this species by sacculus a little longer and with a process somewhat pointed at apex dorsally. We here synonymize P. chengchenngensis Wang & Zheng on the basis of a careful examination of many specimens.
