The gonostylus, ejaculatory apodeme, and apical tenaculum of the cercus are all similar in shape in P. hirsutus, P. moragai, and P. tango. These three species differ principally by their numbers of short, rod-like accessory tenacula along the cerci. While P. moragai has 3, and P. tango has 4 short rod-like accessory tenacula, P. hirsutus has 14 to 15. The three species also differ by a combination of other features: P. t a ng o has contiguous eyes, while the eyes of P. hirsutus and P. moragai are separated by less than one facet diameter; the aedeagus of P. tango and P. moragai are slightly sinuous, tapering at the apex, while the aedeagus of P. hirsutus is straight.	en	Lopes, Priscila Silva, Bravo, Freddy (2015): Review of Platyplastinx Enderlein, 1937 (Diptera, Psychodidae) with descriptions of four new species.

Although only 5 rod-like accessory tenacula were illustrated in the original description of this species by Bravo et al.
