Remarks. A species described from Angola (Quedenfeldt 1884) and as far as we know only known from this country (Beinhundner 2017a). Marais & Holm (1992) and Krajcik (2008a) considered this species a synonym of P. discolor kolbei Schürhoff, 1938 . However, both taxa are easily segregated by the parameres conformation (Rigout 1989). The male adult specimens of MUHNAC and Kakande fit well this species description, including the parameres (e.g. Fig. 5i). The Kakande adult specimens were collected alive on the soil in a secondary open forest, being apparently anesthetized by the consumption of tree saps. Biological and ecological data are not available for this species. It is a new species record for the Bié and Huambo Provinces.
