Remarks

epiplanktonic.Netitic-oceanic.
The male described by C.B. Wilson as P. surrecta male is synonym of Ivellopsis elephas (Brady, 1883).
For Ohtsuka & al. (1987, p.560) the species resembles P. rostraticauda; female appendages of both species are almost the same except for P5. The most conspicuous difference is in the morphology of the urosome.
This species belongs to "P. alata"-Group (See in P. alata in Mulyadi, 2003, Table I; 2011, p.1529)
