This species is also similar to P. nigrifoliiseta (Takada et al., 1973) from eastern Malaysia in the shape of the vertical process of gonopod, but can be distinguished from it by the distinct spinules on the aedeagal outer membrane (in P. nigrifoliiseta having only minute warts).

Remarks This species is similar to P. setitabula sp. nov. in the paramere lacking pubescence and the aedeagal median rod subapically symmetrical. In P. setitabula the arista is without ventral branches; additional plate between cerci very large, more than tenth sternite.	en	Chen, Hong-Wei, Gao, Jian-Jun, Wen, Shuo-Yang (2005): Species diversity of the genus Phortica Schiner in Yunnan, China, with descriptions of nine new species (Diptera, Drosophildae).
