SUMMARY
It is possible that the eastern populations of this species should be separated as P. discodactylus (Amiet et al., 2004). Lamotte and Xavier (1966) observed that some species previously recognized as this species exhibit more extensive webbing (up the disk on the inner surface of the second toe), greater pigmentation of the throat and breast in females, and males are slightly smaller size (males below 25 mm).
