Comments. This redescription is based on Hull’s (1947b) original description. The information available in the original description is inadequate to clearly distinguish P. cyclops from similar species. In Hull’s 1949a key P. cyclops keys out as ‘Alula near or quite as wide as the basal part of costal cell […]’ (page 108, couplet 54), which suggests that the alula is much wider than on P. aster , although this information is not present in the original description.
