The specimens reported above agree quite well with Kanekosoriginal description and figures. E. kumadai is related to E. malay-sianus Ferris, E. menetensis Ferris, and; E. larisci Ferris—all fromAsian squirrels; it may be separated from malaysianus in havingparatergal plates on segments 2-4 (2-5 in malaysianus); and it differs.
