Diagnosis and Relationships

provided by Deans Deitz Wharton et al
Lateral ocelli separated by 0.5-0.6X their widest diameter from each other and about 1.6-1.7X their widest diameter from eye margin. Antennae with 30-32 flagellomeres. pronotum and mesoscutum (1, 2) glabrous, impunctate. T1 about twice as long as broad. head orange-brown with face (1, 2, 3) infuscate medially and vertex entirely black. mesosoma and metasoma orange, ventrally grading to yellowish. Hind legs orange with coxa and trochanter distally infuscate, tarsomeres entirely black. fore wing very strongly yellowish, distally blackish infumate. This species is most similar to P. claviger and P. bonillai in body sculpture and form of the clypeal margin. The fore wing of P. castilloi is distinctly yellow, with the apex infumate, similar to P. adriani_, whereas the base of the 0001089">wing is hyaline in P. bonillai and P. claviger.
