Remarks. This is a member of the P. sulphureipes group and most closely related to P. sulphureipes, as discussed above. The maximum intraspecific p -distance within P. coreanus from Primorskij Kraj and Korea was 0.2% in COI (n=4) and 0.4% in NaK (n=4) and the nearest neighbour was P. sulphureipes sulphureipes, diverging by a minimum of 3.0% in COI analysis and by a minimum of 0.9% in NaK analysis.
