Distributional records from Australia and Australian Region by BREDDIN (1900, 1901a), CASSIS & GROSS (2002), and VOIGT (2006) belong to Ph. gutta famelica (see e.g., STEHLÍK 2007a). The records of Ph. gutta from Sulawesi (BREDDIN 1901a), Timor (Blöte 1931), and Halmahera (BREDDIN 1900) apparently belong to Ph. gutta famelica as well. The record of Ph. gutta famelica from China: Sichuan by VOIGT (2006) represents a misidentification of Ph. gutta gutta.
