Basistyles broad, with projection along mesal margin. Disti- styles shorter than basistyles. Ventral parameres (Fig. 125) elongate, barbed, unbranched, extending to bases of dis- tistyles. Female genital plate (Fig. 156) short, mm in length. Distal plate oval, apex emarginate, forming two broad lateral lobes. Basal plate absent. Spermathecal apodeme elongate, ex- tending well beyond base of distal plate although not reaching apical emar- gination. Superficially the male terminalia of P. dubitans resemble those of P. speci- osa, especially in the shapes of the ven- tral parameres and hypovalves. The males of P. dubitans are distinguished from those of P. speciosa in having nar- rower hypovalves, longer basistyles, and fewer and broader barbs, tending to occur in tufts, on the ventral para- meres. In northern Illinois P. dubitans was collected on stinging wood nettle along.
