Diagnosis:Head with vertex trapezoidal, foveae indented; anteorbital tubercles developed, small; often tubercle present in the middle of the fore margin on either side; antero-median part of vertex forming tubercle; separation between vertex and genae distinct; genal processes developed, conical, subacute or blunt apically, rounded dorsally ( Fig. 31). Antenna less than twice head width. Forewing oval or subrhomboidal; bearing dark pattern consisting of small spots and sometimes larger extended areas; pterostigma short or long, ending above the middle of Rs or distal to it. Metatibia without genual spine, with 4–8 sclerotised apical spurs.
Biology and damage:Unknown. Host-plants: Fabaceaeand Lauraceae( Li 2011; NHMB data).
Distribution:Pantropical ( Li 2011; NHMB data).
Remarks:Currently, Epiacizziais used only for species in China( Li 2011). An ongoing generic revision of Macrocorsinae(D. Burckhardt, in prep.) suggests that several species currently assigned to Colophorinaor Euphalerus, belong, in fact to Epiacizzia. This is the first record of this genus in Colombia.
