REMARKS

This genus encompasses three described species, two of which ( P. mirifica ( Silva 1993) , and P. muricata ( Silva, 1993)) are reported from Brazil. The other species, P. nigricoxa Ozerov, 1992 is known from Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Panama. The genus is recorded for the first time from French Guiana, but as in Palaeosepsis , male specimens are needed to come to a reliable identification.
