Differential diagnosis.

This species resembles E. biharensis , E. pudibundae , and E. transversus , but can be distinguished from them by the following combination of character states: uniformly pectinate hind tarsal claw; weakly to moderately sinuate fore wing vein 1m-cu&M (Fig. 26F ); and punctostriate meso- and metapleuron (Fig. 26E ) (cf. Table 7 ).
