Measurements of 3 adult females collected are: dorsal shield 339 (332 – 340) long and 226 (215 – 235) wide; j1 35 (33 – 35), j3 43 (38 – 48), j4 43 (38 – 50), j5 45 (43 – 48), j6 62 (62 – 65), J2 63 (62 – 65), J5 7 (5 – 8), z2 37 (35 – 41), z4 55 (53 – 60), z5 18 (14 – 23), Z1 60 (55 – 64), Z4 61 (58 – 65), Z5 82 (80 – 83), s4 74 (62 – 85), S2 59 (48 – 65), S4 49 (45 – 55), S5 49 (47 – 50), r3 27 (25 – 29), R1 18 (17 – 20); distances between st1 – st3 65 (64 – 67), st2 – st2 70 (67 – 75) and st5 – st5 83 (81 – 87); ventrianal shield 106 (102 – 110) long, 64 (63 – 65) wide at level of ZV2, 74 (72 – 76) wide at anus level; calyx of spermatheca 23 (20 – 25) long; Sge I 31 (30 – 32), Sge II 32 (30 – 33), Sge III 41 (40 – 42), Sti III 27 (25 – 28), Sge IV 59 (57 – 60), Sti IV 36 (35 – 37), St IV 71 (70 – 73).

Chaetotaxy — genu II 2, 2/0-2/0, 1; genu III 1, 2/1-2/0, 1.

Remarks — Measurements of the specimens collected fit well those given in the original description of the species. Moraes et al. (2001) reported a wide variation in setal lengths of specimens identified as E. nyalensis from sub-Saharan Africa. The calyx of the spermatheca of the specimens collected is very similar to the illustration of Moraes et al. (2001).

Specimens collected — 2 females, on Urena lobata , at University Cheikh Anta Diop, in August 2006; 2 females on Anacardium occidentalis L., 5 females and 1 male on Ficus sycomorus L., at KBD, in February 2009.

World distribution — This species has been reported from Asia, northern and sub-Saharan Africa.
