Note. The type of P. uniclavata was mentioned by Kim et al. (2019) as deposited in INU or SNU without specifying which one was the final depository. This ambiguity remains currently and would need to be resolved by enquiring with these two institutions.

This species is recorded from Thailand for the first time.
