Now species are: P.viriosus, Panama and Costa Rica; P.steatopygus, Chiapas; and P.isovespertilionis(= Pvespertilionis, part, F. & H. 1947), Panama. Notes on distribution and habitats are given for P. deleoni F. & H., P. vesciferus F. & H., P. beltrani Vargas & Diaz Najera, and P. vespertilionis F. & H.
