Diagnosis. Recognized by following combination of characters: overall dorsal coloration brown ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ); antennal segment II with apical, white annulation that is relatively broad, as wide as half of interocular distance ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ); scutellum with yellow patches baso-laterally and apically, moderately convex with moderately developed, longitudinal, medial swelling ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ); posterior lobe of pronotum flat. hemelytron dark brown ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ); R+M vein with yellow patch medially ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ); medial fracture with longitudinal, yellow patch subapically ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ); claval suture with short longitudinal yellow stripe apically ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ).
Redescription. Female. COLORATION ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ). Dark brown with yellow areas. Head. Dark yellow-fuscous; antennal segment I black; segment II brown dark yellow, narrowly black basally and with narrow yellow annulation apically; labium dark brown. Thorax. Pronotum. Dark brown. Mesoscutum and scutellum. Dark brown; mesoscutum weakly tinged with dark yellow near lateral margin; scutellum with two large patches each situated baso-laterally and with indistinct, longitudinal, dark yellow stripe, originating from medial part and terminating apically. Thoracic pleura. Proepisternum and proepimeron dark brown; remaining pleura black; ostiolar peritreme dark grey. Hemelytron. Dark brown; R +M vein with yellow patch medially; medial fracture with longitudinal, yellow patch subapically; claval suture with short longitudinal yellow stripe apically; membrane dark grey. Legs. Procoxa black; meso– and metacoxae dark yellow tinged with fuscous; mesofemur weakly tinged with dark yellow near apex; metafemur tinged with yellow basally and subapically; tibiae and tarsi dark yellow; tibiae narrowly black basally; protibia with narrow, dark brown annulation apically. Abdomen. Black. TEXTURE AND VESTITURE ( Fig 5d View FIGURE 5 ). Thorax. Scutellum. Covered with two types of setae: one short, dense, and recumbent and other longer, sparse, and erect, Hemelytron. Covered with relatively dense, long, semi-recumbent setae. STRUCTURE ( Fig 5d View FIGURE 5 ) .
Thorax. Pronotum. Posterior lobe flat. Scutellum. With weakly convex, narrow longitudinal medial swelling.
Male: Unknown.
Measurements. Body. Length: 4.60, width 1.70. Head. Length: 0.40, width: 0.96, interocular distance 0.33. Antenna. Length of segment I: 0.63, II: 1.65, III: 2.30, IV: 2.55. Labium. Length of segment I: 0.80, II: 0.68, III: 0.64, IV: 0.46. Pronotum. Length: 0.66, width of anterior margin: 0.96, length of lateral margin: 0.60, width of posterior margin: 1.50.
Biology. Unknown.
Distribution. Panama (Bugaba).
Remarks. Most like P. cerbereus and P. nubilus in sharing the relatively small body (<5.0 mm) and scutellum with weakly convex, narrow medial, longitudinal swelling. In can be distinguished by the yellow patches on hemelytron ( Fig. 5d View FIGURE 5 ).
Type material. Holotype ♀: Holotype (round label); Bugaba, Panama, Champion; B.C.A. Hem. I Cylapus nubilus (BMNH) .
