Both are distinguished from each other by the shape of the male upper lip (shaped like a parrot’s beak in the lateral view in P. psittacina sp. nov. versus a strong hook-shaped structure present in P. germanica). Parapolycope psittacina sp. nov. is clearly distinguishable from four other described species, except for P. kunashiri, according to the shape of the male upper lip. Although, a description of the male upper lip in P. kunashiri is absent, this species possesses a longer copulatory duct and larger number of furcal claws in both furcal lamellae than P. psittacina sp. nov., therefore, these species are distinctly different from each other. Parapolycope psittacina sp. nov. has a wide distribution of about 900 km in a linear distance that ranges from Toyooka (Figure 1, Loc. 2) to Kashiwajima (Figure 1, Loc. 18), along the Pacific coast.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03CE87C2732E3C156EECFF10A59B54A5	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, this new species is distinguished by the morphology of the male upper lip (basal part of a hook-shaped structure in the lateral view is without a “waist” in P. uncata sp. nov. versus narrow in P. germanica). Parapolycope uncata sp. nov. is clearly distinguishable from four other described species except for P. kunashiri by the shape of male upper lip. Parapolycope kunashiri is distinguishable from P. uncata sp. nov. by possessing a longer copulatory duct and a larger number of furcal claws in both furcal lamellae. Parapolycope uncata sp. nov. has a narrower distribution along the Pacific coast than P. psittacina sp. nov., extending from Nahama (Figure 1, Loc. 3) to Oura (Figure 1, Loc. 11), about 150 km in linear distance. Along the Sea of Japan, on the other hand, P. uncata sp. nov. is found in a zone from Omonogawa (Figure 1, Loc. 1) to Yatsumata (Figure 1, Loc. 12), a distance of about 600 km. This result suggests that P. uncata sp. nov. is widely distributed along the Sea of Japan rather than the Pacific. But the authors have researched only two sites along the coast of the Sea of Japan (Yatsumata, Fukui Prefecture and Omonogawa, Akita Prefecture). Therefore further research may show a broader distribution for P. uncata sp. nov.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03CE87C273273C0D6D47FDBEA5D55089	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
