Habitat/Ecology. This species was collected from disturbed secondary forest fragments in urban or semi-urban settings, and also mangroves.

Remarks. This species was identified primarily from males collected via malaise traps. Considering the hypogaeic nature of P. kraepelini, it is unlikely that the species nests in actual mangroves – the tidal zone that undergoes periodic inundation. Winged males collected from mangrove malaise traps may have originated from drier grounds in adjacent back mangroves.
