Type, E. erraiicus, Fabr., a Palaearctic species, 



jDisfrihution. ISFearctic and Pala^arctic Eegions ; apparently in 

 this fauna confined to N.W. India. 



This genus is allied to Scolojyostethus (vol. ii, p. 92) from which 

 vusing Stfil's differential diagnosis) it is separated by having the 

 first joint of the antennae by more than half its length passing the 

 apex of the head ; head long, more acute, the space between the 

 eyes and antennae being subequal to the length of the eyes.
