Cordillière du Mexique. Unspecified series.
Saussure (1860: 323) placed this name in the synonymy of P. toltecusSaussure, 1859, and indicated that the original description was based only on the ♂. There are no specimens placed under this name in the MHNG. The ♂ specimen in alcohol placed under the name P. toltecusin the MHNG could be a syntype of P. mayusif Saussure (1860) was correct in stating that P. toltecuswas described on the basis of ♀ material only.
