Distribution in Colombia. Unknown. This species was recorded from Colombia in the “ Edessa ovina group” study by Fernandes and Silva (2021), but without specific locality. The geographic coordinates recorded in the examined material suggest Cundinamarca as a possible locality.

Edessa ovina has the dorsal surface green; the humeral angles with the apices rounded, tumid and black; the scutellum is short, the apex is not reaching the level of the apex of the corium; the ventral surface is dark yellow; the thorax is irregularly punctate; the peritreme is long; the superior process of the genital cup is claw-like; and the apex of the paramere is falcate.
