Diagnosis

Head dark brown or blackish and mesosoma yellow (Fig. 29B, G); POL 0.7 × as long as diameter of posterior ocellus (Fig. 29B); maximum width of pterostigma about 1.6 × vein 3-SR (Fig. 29F); apical half of middle tibia brown (Fig. 29E); apical half of antenna infuscate or dark brown and second metasomal tergite dark brown or largely so (Fig. 29H); OOL 3.3-5.0 × diameter of posterior ocellus (Fig. 29B); about 6 subapical antennal segments of female moniliform and minute (Fig. 29E); triangular prolongation of hypopygium of female rather slender and about as long as second segment of hind tarsus (Fig. 29I). The Fujian holotype of P. ejuncida is a freak male without vein r of the fore wing and, therefore, synonymised with P. sponsa .
