03BC420FFFA8C13B7E8427C0121BFCFD.taxon	discussion	Comments. The species is similar to Psl. fuscovenosa sp. n. and Psl. cavatica (Skuse, 1888). It differs from the first species mainly by having longer apical spines on the gonostylus and much shorter antennal flagellomeres. Like Psl. cavatica it has similar short flagellomeres but differs in the shape of the gonostylus, by having longer apical spines, a less sclerotized tegmen and a longer aedeagus. The species belongs to the Psl. longicostalis group sensu Mohrig (2013).	en	Mohrig, Werner, Kauschke, Ellen, Broadley, Adam (2020): Black fungus gnats (Diptera: Sciaridae) of Queensland, Australia.
