The forewings of  P. plaumanniare a uniform dark brown. Adult. Forewing length 8.6­10.9 mm, n = 30. Head dark brown or black. Maxillary palps dark brown. Antenna twice forewing length; chestnut brown, with narrow patches of pale sensilla on anteromesal surface of each flagellomere. Dorsal pterothorax dark brown; ventrolateral thorax dark brown. Femora dark brown; tibiae dark brown; foretarsi dark brown; mesotarsi golden brown; metatarsi dark brown. Metathoracic leg of male without posterior fringe. Tibial spur formula 2,4,4. Forewing flat; dark brown; without colored markings. Hind wing basal brush present in male. Male. Preterminalic abdominal terga with anteromesal notch. Corematic structures absent, terga III­V unmodified, without membranous lobes or sclerotized processes. Sternum VII with short, acute anteromesal process. Sternum VIII similar to anterior sterna, sternum IX not elongate. Tergum IX with paired mesal ridges extending 1/2 length of segment; posterior margin not distinct from base of tergum X; thinly sclerotized anteromesally ( Fig. 92B); lateral ridge present; dorsal pleural setae approximately 10, ventral pleural setae absent ( Fig. 92A); sternum IX with paired mesolateral ridges; sternum IX ( Fig. 92C). Preanal appendage approximately length of tergum X, narrowly elliptic, setae long, but not filamentous or longer than appendage ( Fig. 92A, B). Tergum X without basal lobes; basodorsal process absent; basolateral processes absent; apex, in lateral view, acute, in dorsal view, notched, notch deep and round; setose dorsally ( Fig. 92A, B). Harpago sharply tapered; peglike setae few, apical ( Fig. 92A, C). Phallic endotheca with paired apicolateral lobes and paired basolateral lobes, basolateral lobes multilobed, apicolateral lobes small and rounded; phallotremal sclerites average size, longest dimension less than diameter of phallobase; dorsal sclerite narrow, width less than height ( Fig. 92D, E). Female. Preterminal abdominal terga with anteromesal notch. Sternum VII with short pointed anteromesal process. Tergum VIII without posterolateral brush; sternum VIII cleft posteromesally to anterior ridge; sternum VIII ( Fig. 93C). Tergum IX without mesal ridge; covered with short fine pilosity ( Fig. 93B). Sternum IX anterior lobes smooth and indistinct, posterior lobes striate, with shallow pockets lateral to vaginal opening ( Fig. 93A). Tergum X appendage longer than mesal lobe, base marked by faint suture line, apex triangular; mesal lobe lightly sclerotized; digitate lateral processes absent ( Fig. 93B). Sternum X without setae in membrane ( Fig. 93A). Vaginal apparatus posterior sclerite elongate; anterior sclerite tapered anteriorly, posterolateral projections rounded; posterior sclerite triangular; posterior end of spermatheca a sclerotized ovoid ( Fig. 93A). Material examined.  ARGENTINA: Misiones:San Ignacio, Haute Parana, ii., Wagner — 1 male paratype(NMNH);  Apr, Wagner— 1 male paratype( NMNH);   BRAZIL: Santa Catarina: Seara( Nova Teutônia), 27°11'00”S, 52°23'00"W,  300­500 m,  31.v.1938, Plaumann — 1 male( BMNH);   10.ix.1939, Plaumann— 1 male paratype( MCZ);   25.iv.1963, Plaumann— holotypemale, 3 male, 1 female paratypes( NMNH);   1.v.1963, Plaumann— 5 male, 1 female paratypes( UMSP);   1.xi.1963, Plaumann— 4 male, 4 female paratypes( NMNH);   6.x.1964, Plaumann— 3 male, 1 female paratypes( NMNH); —  1 male paratype( UMSP). Distribution. Argentina, Brazil. 3319300514 [509,663,305,328] Brazil -27.15 Santa Catarina 88 89 1 Santa Catarina 3319300423 [840,1321,305,328] NMNH -52.25 88 89 1 3319300376 [615,1110,1809,1835] NMNH Wagner Apr 88 89 1 1 paratype 3319300619 1938-05-31 BMNH Brazil 400 89 90 -27.183332 Nova Teutonia 20 -52.383335 88 89 1 1 Santa Catarina paratype 3319300372 [588,1178,284,310] 1939-09-10 MCZ Brazil Plaumann 89 90 1 1 Santa Catarina paratype 3319300743 1963-04-25 NMNH Brazil Plaumann 89 90 4 1 3 Santa Catarina holotype 3319300878 1963-05-01 UMSP Brazil Plaumann 89 90 6 1 5 Santa Catarina paratype 3319301080 1963-11-01 NMNH Brazil Plaumann 89 90 8 4 4 Santa Catarina paratype 3319300325 [388,1093,404,430] 1964-10-06 NMNH Brazil Plaumann 89 90 4 1 3 Santa Catarina paratype 3319300962 1964-10-06 UMSP Brazil true Plaumann 89 90 1 1 Santa Catarina paratype
