Postscutellum almost flat, somewhat depressed posteriorly, entirely within the posterior slope of the thorax, without any trace of median line. Propodeum moderately developed, seen from above about as long as the scutellum, quite convex, completely rounded ofl, without ridges or projecting angles on the sides, quite deeply grooved in the middle over its whole length ; just above the base of the abdomen the sides of the channel are much raised and form a blunt angle, which is separated by a narrow notch from the valvulae. Mesopleura with- out carinae or ridges along the epicnemial depressions, which are but slightly marked for the fore and middle legs. Legs more slender than in E. arbustorum : the hind tibiae are rather more abruptly widened. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned pa
