6. Said to have been described and figured by LeSueur, but since no reference to E. louisiana LeSueur is given and 

 since none can now be found, the name presumably was taken from a manuscript, and Hildebrand, in his review 

 of the American EngrauUdae regarded it as having no standing in modern nomenclature [3).
