 Easily recognisable among its immediate allies by its very 

 Avidely oval form, which would be circular were it not that the 

 elytra are somewhat drawn out and acuminate at the apex. The 

 antennae are conspicuously shorter than those of P. Niohe but not 

 so short as those of P. (Enone. The form is considerably wider 

 and much more depressed than in P. chlorotica, Boisd., and the 

 head is conspicuously narrower and less flattened between the 

 eyes than in P. iiigritula, Clk.
