The biology of <i>P. horrifer</i> remains totally unknown. This is the first record of this species from Vietnam and from Asia. Measurements are given in the table 3 for females and males and compared with those obtained from specimens collected in other countries of Africa and Indian Ocean. Measurements obtained during this study agree well with most of the previous measurements obtained, especially with measurements of specimens from La Réunion Island.
