Placidus incurvatus Wei & Zhang, 2003: 91 , Figs 1–7

Remarks. This species is very similar to the species which was figured by Evans (1971) as Placidus hornei Distant in having the elongate male pygofer and the large inner bifurcate process. It can be distinguished from the latter and other species of the genus by the colour pattern on the head and shape of both the style and male valve.
