The unicolorous black variety described by Burmeister is distinguishable from 

 E. atra by the two chalky-white spots of the pygidium, and the much narrower and 

 elongate form. A beautiful variety was captured by Hoge at Colima city, black, with 

 the thorax broadly margined with rich red. The typical form was found by Hoge in 

 great profusion at Tapachula, on the lower part of the Pacific slope. 



The form of the clypeus differs from that of the species included in Section VI. in 

 the apical margin being greatly elevated, and deeply emarginated in the middle. The 

 male anterior tibiae are long and slender, often with only one (terminal) tooth, and 

 when bidentate the upper tooth is obtuse, and separated from the apical one by a deep 

 sinuation. This structure is quite different from that of E. vestita and E. eximia of 

 Section VI.
