Distinguished from other members of the aa group by the strong apical seat on the hook-like process of the fore tibia and the strong long black setae on the swollen medial area of the ventral surface of the fore tibia. Description . Male . Body length: 3.2 mm . Wing length: 2.6 mm . Head . Black, face dark brown to black with reddish highlights, dark brown near clypeus; oc and vt black, about one-third length of antennal arista; front, occiput, and vertex black with blue highlights; face constricted at middle, almost holoptic, eyes separated below antennae by width of 1–2 ommatidia; palp small, dark brown; proboscis brown, extending slightly below eye in lateral view; scape and pedicel dark brown; postpedicel brown, short, conical, length subequal to width; arista slightly longer than head height. Thorax : Mesoscutum, scutellum, and pleura dark brown to brown throughout, with a few metallic bluish highlights dorsolaterally; thoracic setae black: 1 + 3 dc; 2 np; 2 ph; 1 pa; 1 + 1 sc; ac absent; halter stem and knob white. Legs : CI yellowish, CII and CIII brown; FI and FII yellowish brown, FIII yellowish brown basally, becoming darker brown on apical one-fourth; remainder of legs yellowish brown; FII with 2 strong black setae, one medially on ventral surface, one on apical one-third of ventral surface, remainder of femora unmodified, without MSSC; TiI ( Fig. 22 ) slightly thicker just beyond middle on ventral surface, with large hook-like process apically, length of hook-like process subequal to width of tibia, swollen area with 4 long, strong, stiff setae, apical hook-like process ( Fig. 24 ) with dense tibial comb (pecten) and bearing strong stiff black seta at tip (MSSC), remainder of foreleg unmodified; TiII slightly bowed and swollen, with long seta medially on dorsal surface and one subapically (MSSC). IIt1 about one-half length of Iit2, with 2 long black curved setae laterally, their length subequal to IIt2, and with dense wavy setae on mesal surface; Iit2 with row of long wavy setae on mesal surface, length subequal to segment. Remainder of leg segments without MSSC. Wing : pale smoky throughout; posterior crossvein perpendicular to vein M. Abdomen . Brown, dark brown along posterior margin, with short black hairs dorsally on each tergite, a few longer hairs laterally; sternites yellowish brown. Hypopygium dark brown with brown cerci, not dissected. Female . As in male except for lack of MSSC; postpedicel length about 1.5 x width; legs normal, without modifications. Types . Holotype ɗ (BPBM Type 16,629) [BPBM1013140] and 2Ψ paratypes [BPBM1013141] from FRENCH POLYNESIA : Marquesas : UA POU: Anakooma River, 1300 ft [ 396 m ], cascade, sweep wall, 19 Aug 2001 , R.A. Englund. Other paratype : FRENCH POLYNESIA : Marquesas : U A P OU: 1ɗ [BPBM1013142], Paeoa River, 1150–1500 ft [ 350–457 m ], 17 Aug 2001 , pools/cascades, R.A. Englund. Holotype and paratypes in BPBM. Etymology . The specific epithet derives from the Marquesan ‘e‘e = “disappeared”; referring to the relative cryptic nature of the species, only being found in samples after collection of a number of flies from the same locality. The name is treated as a noun in apposition.
