Taxonomy: P. ilamensis and P. pasatigris actually are single species with two different names. P. ilamensis paper was published in May 2015 and P. pasatigris in June 2015, which makes P. pasatigris a junior synonym of P. ilamensis .

Conservation: IUCN: Not Evaluated, PC: Least Concern. While there are many threats in the distribution range of this species, it is suspected to be declining slowly and it still has many independent populations. Over the last 10 years, the number of independent populations and population sizes have stayed practically the same. We estimated that the decline is not strong enough to qualify this species for NT or another threatened category. Therefore, we classified it as Least Concern.
