Subspecies
Previously, two subspecies were
recognized: P. p. picta and P. p. nigripes, but these are synonyms (see
Synonyms below). No subspecies are recognized here.

Based on a detailed phylogenetic analysis, Hollmann-Schirrmacher (1998)
synonymizes the genera Nostima and Philygria. Although this has not
been accepted by all subsequent authors, I find Hollmann-Schirrmachers
arguments convincing and accept this synonymy here.
