Diagnosis. Aedeagal sheath with the following sclerotized postgonites: anterior one longest and strongly curved ventrad, and posterior one minute and apically pointed on left lateral lobe; anterior one broadest, somewhat triangular and gently curved ventrad, and posterior one long and apically pointed on right lateral lobe (“Figs 13, 14” in Chen & Máca 2012).

Supplementary description (not repeating characters common to P. foliisetoides ). Supracervical setae approximately 14. Dorsomedial, tentorial apodeme 1/2 as long as basal, parallel portion of dorsolateral, tentorial apodeme. Cibarial, medial sensilla 7–8 per side; posterior sensilla 6–7 per side. Setulae just before prescutellar acrostichal setae as short as other acrostichal setulae (ch.15-0).

Specimen examined. Indonesia: 3♂ paratypes, Padang, West Sumatra, 11.xii.1989, S. Nakano leg. ( SEHU) .

Distribution. Sumatra.

Remarks. This species resembles P. saltiaristula in having both posterior postgonites apically pointed and neither anterior one bifurcated, but can be distinguished from it by the diagnostic characters.
