| description |
A polished orange to brown species with pale legs. The tips of the wings have a distinctive, characteristic white mark that does not extend across the entirety of the apical wing margins, distinguishing this species from the similar P. binotatus. Furthermore, the head typically strongly contrasts with the rest of the body, being dark brown to black in orange individuals. In darker brown specimens, the contrast between the head and the body is reduced. The postclypeus is very dark brown, with this color extending laterally to the procoxae; the anteclypeus is stramineous. Macropterous individuals are much darker than brachypters, typically a dark brown, with clear or slightly darkened wings. The antennae are stramineous. Adult brachypterous males are 1.99-2.22 mm long, while females are 2.67-2.88 mm; macropterous females are around 3.33 mm long. (Bartlett & Deitz, 2000) |
