P. pinguis can be distinguished from other species in the genus by its robust form, anterior margin of head not thin or foliaceous, male pygofer relatively long and rectangular in lateral view and with short posteroventral tooth, subgenital plates widely set from each other and not meeting medially, and asymmetrical aedeagal shaft. Body. Male, 4.8–5.2 mm . Female, 6.5–6.8 mm . Overall form robust. Anterior margin of head broadly angled to face, not thin or depressed. Color. Coloration as in genus description; varies from somewhat light to very darkly colored. Male. Pygofer relatively long in lateral view, subrectangular; with 4–6 distinct long setae posterodorsally; ventral margin undulate; posteroventral tooth short, not very distinct. Subgenital plates widely set from each other, not meeting medially; with numerous short thick setae laterally, with 2–3 loosely arranged longitudinal rows of long setae across plate surface; aedeagus shaft asymmetrical. Female. Sternite VII broad, width more than 2x median length; broadly incised on posterior margin, with small median lobe. Material examined.
