Females

1 More than 50 % of the spermatheca posterior to the fossa and guide (e.g. Fig. 59) .................................................... 2 - Less than 50 % of the spermatheca posterior to the fossa and guide (e.g. Fig. 64)...................................................... 6 2 Spermatheca smaller than the fossa and inner edge of the fossa well beyond the outer edge of the spermatheca; L 4

patterning as in Fig. 3 D ............................................................................................................ E. anotata ( Figs 49–55) - Spermatheca equal to or larger than the fossa and inner edge of the fossa near or overlapping the outer edge of the

spermatheca ................................................................................................................................................................. 3 3 Insemination duct anterior to the fossa and guide, fossa O-shaped, and wide apart so just overlapping spermatheca;

L 4 patterning as in Fig. 3 F ................................................................................................. E. patagonica ( Figs 73–79) - Insemination duct not passing anterior to the fossa and guide, fossa C-shaped, inner edges of guide overlap the sper-

E. rusticana ( Figs 89–95) - Fossa dorsal to the spermatheca and guides open ventrolaterally .............................................................................. 5 5 Dark pattern on the abdomen forms two longitudinal bands; femur of L 4 a plain yellow colour (may occasionally

have faint markings ( Fig. 3 E) .......................................................................................... E. saitiformis ( Figs 96–102) - Dark pattern on the abdomen scattered, does not form two longitudinal bands; three dark bands on a yellow back-
