03DB0762B161FFE6FE4CFB1A9FF7FC1D.taxon	diagnosis	DIAGNOSIS Among the Oriental species of the genus, this new one is similar to P. typicus (DISTANT) in its general habitus and the length of antennal segments; however, it can easily be recognized from the latter by its very dense and clearly visible pilosity of the body with hairs longer than a diameter of the eye (in P. typicus, the body pilosity is sparse, and hairs are clearly shorter than a diameter of the eye).	en	Lis, Jerzy A.

03DB0762B161FFE6FE4CFB1A9FF7FC1D.taxon	description	DESCRIPTION Body elongate, about 2.1 times longer than wide (length 3.66 mm, width 1.74 mm), black; antennae dark brown with pale brown apices; apices of tibiae, apex of clypeus, eyes, ocelli and posterior parts of clavus and hemelytrae with castaneous tinge; rostrum pale brown; tarsi yellowish brown, distinctly paler than tibiae. Dorsal body surface coarsely punctured and covered with numerous whitish brown very long hairs (usually longer than a diameter of the eye). Head very densely coarsely punctured; punctures large, bearing well visible whitish brown hairs; pilosity as long as or longer than a diameter of the eye; clypeus free, only a little longer than paraclypei, bearing two strong subapical pegs; paraclypei with 3 submarginal hair-like setae; eyes large, ocular index 3.0; antennae slender, very long, 5 - segmented, 1 st segment extending beyond the head margins, 2 nd segment minute, about 2.5 times shorter than the 3 rd; the latter equal in length to the 4 th, 5 th segment the longest, about 1.5 times longer than the 4 th; rostrum short, reaching middle of mesosternum. Pronotal disc coarsely punctured and densely pilose with whitish brown very long hairs except for impunctate, smooth and bare elongated areas around the calli and smooth and bare apices of pronotal umbones. Pronotal disc with distinct transverse impression in two thirds of pronotal length, dividing the disc into two lobes; anterior pronotal margin strongly incised, posterior margin almost straight, lateral margins of pronotal anterior lobe with three well visible brown submarginal hair-like setae; anterior convexity of propleuron coarsely punctured and bearing dense and long pilosity in its anterior and median parts, the posterior propleural convexity impunctate, polished and bare. Scutellar disc, with exception of anterolateral smooth spots, coarsely punctured and densely pilose with whitish brown very long hairs. Corium evenly coarsely punctured, costal margin with numerous curved short hairs; membrane clearly narrower than abdomen, its apex almost reaching the abdominal tip. Abdominal sterna coarsely punctured and covered with numerous whitish brown long hairs; anterolateral angles of segments with a clearly visible tubercle each. Legs not specifically modified.	en	Lis, Jerzy A.
