REMARK
Specimens (see Fig. 24) fitting the description of P. guyanensis for their general shape and male FW size and venation (Desutter-Grandcolas 1992b, figure 37), face coloration (Desutter-Grandcolas 1992b, figure 41), the structure of male genitalia (Desutter-Grandcolas 1992b, figure 38), and female copulatory papilla (Desutter-Grandcolas 1992b, figure 44). They differ by their larger size (compare measurements) and number of stridulatory teeth (n = 118, n = 1, against 60-83 teeth in the specimens from the type locality), and a very short yellow line between median ocellus and the face (in the place of two yellow spots in type material). Male and female genitalia are too similar to P. guyanensis to consider these specimens as a different species, and the lack of samples through the guianese territory impedes a correct appreciation of species variation.
