            Diese zierliche Art ist einerseits mit P. alvearia Dillw., welche in verschiedenen schonen Varietäten ebenfalls zu Great Inagua von Herrn W. W. Miller gesammelt wurde, an­dererseits mit P. microstoma Pfr., welche ich ausser von Cuba auch von Haiti und Portorico besitze, zunächst ver­wandt."  (Pfeiffer, 1867:130.)  Malakozoolgische Blätter 1867 V. June

This delicate species is on the one hand closest related to P.alvearia Dillw., whose pretty varieties were likewise collected at Great Inagua by Mr. W. W. Miler, on the other hand to P.microstoma Pfr., which I possess apart from Cuba also from Haiti and Puerto Rico.
