Remarks. By its setose M and Cu1, subapically located dorsal lobe on the gonostylus, the arrangement of the megasetae on the dorsal lobe and the shape of the intercoxal lobe on the hypopygium, the new species resembles P. ligulifera Vilkamaa & Hippa, 1996 . But it differs from P. ligulifer a by its robust 4th flagellomere, shorter wings and wider dorsal lobe on an inflated gonostylus.

Etymology. This species is named after its thick megasetae on the dorsal lobe on the gonostylus, from the Latin adjective euryacanthus, meaning wide megasetae.
