borders on the segments, broader on the fourth and fifth segments. 
Pleura and venter dull, with a broad pale border to the fourth and 
fifth segments ; the last two segments wholly pale. Apical process 
of male straight and rather stout, but tapering, with reclinate 
bristles, and some long, simple hairs. The tip of upper part has 
long, slender hairs ; elsewhere the numerous hairs are extremely 
minute and very short, shorter than in E. fraterna. 
The venation is mostly pale, with numerous dots, a few of the 
costals wholly dark; gradates partly dark, three inner, four outer. 
The divisory cell, rather slender, ends on the cross-vein above. Fif- 
teen costals ; eight radials ; gradates parallel, inner about as near to 
radial sector as to outer series. In this male there is but one cross- 
vein from the third cubital cell to margin, two from the fourth 
cubital cell. Length of fore wing, male 8.5 mm.; female 9.5 to 
10 mm. 
A male from Florence Jet., Arizona, 18 April 1935 (F. H. 
Parker) and many specimens from Watson, Utah, 22 July (F. M. 
Carpenter), also Vidal, California, 9 April (Sperry).

reddish brown; a pale spot between antennal bases, and a smaller
