The body is about three times longer than wide; the last four seg- ments of the thorax, espe- cially toward the posterior margin, and the second to the fifth segments of the ab- domen in the male are nearly bare, in the female they are rough and furnished with very short .stiff hairs; the thorax in the male is a little longer and in the female is somewhat longer than the abdomen. The front of the head is as in E. fi<S)C(U(da. The e3'es are almost as in E. fissicauda, being some- what larger in the male and more convex than in the female; the ocelli are ver}^ large in the male and very convex, in the female they are a little less con- vex. The frontal lamina is as in E. Jissicauda. septimo bene definito, in segmentis sexto et quinto et quarto paulum distincta, imprimis e punctis formata. Epiinera et pedes fere ut in C. antillensi.
