Levi (1967) remarked that it is likely introduced to the Americas given the apparent lack of closely related species in the region. The fact that the other species of the sterninotata - group are found in Asia (including P. harapan Dhiya’ulhaq, sp. nov.) might be an indication for this region to be the native distribution of P. adamsoni .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/46D8778FA1865FC2999E5B36B86833D8	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
