Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Mervyn Mansell
Comment:   This species is very similar to P. concinnus, which occurs in South Africa, but P. fascipennis appears to be endemic to northern Namibia. This is a first record for the Lacewing Map. Nothing is known about the immature stages.
