This species is confined to South Africa, Botswana and Namibia. In South Africa, it occurs in the drier western regions of the country. It could be confused with Palpares speciosus, but the characteristic thoracic patterns and male terminalia easily distinguish it from P. speciosus and P. caffer. Larvae are unknown. The specimen is a male - note the long abdomen, and very distinct ectoprocts (claspers) at the end of the abdomen. Females do not have these ectoprocts. |
