Taxon Notes:This species was previously included in P. ianthina, but recent genetic work has shown that there are a number of closely related but distinct species, and that the true P. ianthina is restricted to temperate New South Wales. Most of the tropical forms and those from western and southern Australia are currently included under P. semperi, but it is highly likely that more than one species is included here. See Wilson & Burghardt, 2015.
