SUMMARY
Species with a characteristic yellow fascia on 2nd abdominal tergum, also present in E. hermosa and E. adornata, but differs from them in the absence of a tooth on the posterior margin of the scutellum. E. luteofasciata has posteriorly pointed scutellum, but without tooth or blunt protuberance. Male genitalia with bifurcated surstylus, divided in two similar lobes in lateral view, very similar to the male genitalia of E. bifida, whose surstylus has two lobes of different sizes.
