Diagnosis

Paridris convexa is most similar to Paridris saurotos and Paridris isabelicae. Males and females of Paridris convexa may be separated from these two species by the presence of reticulate microfissures through the head. In Paridris saurotos and Paridris isabelicae this microsculpture is limited to patches on the temple, between the median and lateral ocelli, and directly posterior to the lateral ocellus.

Etymology

The Latin epithet “convexa” is adjectival, meaning rounded or smooth. It is given to this species for its smooth surface sculpture.
