Remarks: The transfer of this species from Prexaspes to Paraphasma by Conle et al. (2020) is corroborated by our phylogenetic hypothesis, which shows P. laterale as the sister of Paraphasma sp. 1 ( Fig. 25: clade U) within Paraphasma sensu nov. These species share two exclusive synapomorphies, i.e. the cerci with distinctly concave apical region (character 47:1) and the phallic organ with the inner face of the dorsal lobe with a small sclerotized region (63:1).
