( Fig. 5C View Figure 5 )

Material examined: One adult parthenogenetic female ( FDRS492 ) .

Remarks: The only species of the genus (Van Damme et al., 2005; Elmoor-Loureiro et al., 2009), it has a very particular morphology: body sub-ovoid, rostrum short and protruding, three main head pores connected, postabdomen wide with large and broad postanal portion, marginal denticles in groups.

Distribution: Possibly in the Neotropics (Van Damme et al., 2005; Elmoor-Loureiro et al., 2009; Fuentes-Reines, 2015). In Brazil, P. parva occurs in the Tocantins /Araguaia, Paraná, Atlântico Nordeste Ocidental and Nordeste Oriental hydrographic regions ( Elmoor-Loureiro, 2017).
