Broadley never recorded P. orientalis for Zambia. This specimens upper labials conform to P. orientalis, but they can be varied in both species, so most likely just P. subtaeniatus. |

Appears to have nine supralabials with 4th-6th entering orbit, conforming to P. subtaeniatus. Colouration also points more towards this species. |
