This speces is most nearly related to Aids lallata Hulst and 

 Clcora lixaria Grt., but is separable from both by the position and 

 course of the intradiscal line which in the present species is boldly 

 and evenly curved, not strongly angulate both in the discal cell and 

 on the anal vein as it is in both the first mentioned species, 

 Euemera angularia Gross. 



This species described in the Journal X. Y. Ent. Soc, XVI, 27, 

 1908, is a small Eriplatymetra grotearia Pack. The type is in the 

 Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia.
