Habitat/Ecology. This subspecies was found in either primary or old secondary forest, in a rotten tree branch on the ground.
Remarks. Said to be of intermediate form between P. singaporensis and its other subspecies conicollis in Forel’s (1911) original description, the subspecies continentis is in general smaller and lighter-coloured than P. singaporensis . At the time of writing, this subspecies is known from Singapore only based on literature records.
