However, both sexes of P. papilionacea are known (Zhang et al. 2023). In addition, the nearest species of the genus, P. longxiensis Zhang, Jäger &amp; Liu, 2023, is distributed about 150 km from this species (outside the endemic range of most Pseudopoda species, personal observation), and the distinct differences of habitus (e. g., CA with brown patterns and dense cover of setae vs. CA with black spots, without setae) (cf. figs 7 A, B vs. figs 156 A, B in Zhang et al. 2023) indicating that they are likely not conspecific. Further research and future findings are needed to resolve this ambiguity conclusively.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/537B70AB1F16558AB7D5C5AF79337BCB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
