Discussion
Variability and similar species The diagnosis given by Faust (1890) is precise: “...sie kann sehr leicht mit angustus Luc. verwechselt werden, wenn man die breitere Stirn, die kürzeren, mehr gewölbten Augen, den breiten Rüssel und die
dünneren Beine von calabricus nicht beachtet.” […it (P. calabricus) can very easily be confused with angustus, if the wider frons, the shorter and more convex eyes, the wider rostrum and the more slender legs of calabricus were not considered]. See also the comments above under P. angustus, the most similar species to P. calabricus.
