Description

Male (n = 12): Body length 2.9-3.2 mm. Wing length 2.4-2-5 mm. Colouration (Dry specimen). Head, face and clypeus dark brown; labellum dark brown; palpus yellow. Antenna with scape and pedicel yellow; flagellum dark brown, basal part of first flagellomere pale. Thorax with scutum, lateral sclerites and propleura dark brown; halteres whitish-yellow. Legs yellow. Abdomen dark brown. Terminalia brown. Head. Vertex, frons and clypeus covered with pale setae. Antenna 1.78 times as long as length from vertex to ventral margin of clypeus; flagellomeres quadrate, with sixth flagellomere as long as broad. Thorax. Scutum covered with pale setae. Legs (n = 3). Fore leg with tibia as long as first tarsomere. Mid-tibia with 20 anterior, 3 posterodorsal, 4 posterior and 2 posteroventral bristles. Hind tibia with 6 anterodorsal, 5 posterodorsal and 3 posterior bristles. Wings. Vein r-m 2.8 times longer than stem of M-fork. Abdomen. Tergites covered with pale setae. Terminalia (n = 4, Fig. 36 a, b). Each part of divided tergite IX with about 3-4 setae, most apical seta stout. GL with length 0.6-0.75 of gonocoxite width (Fig. 36 a, b); apico-internal margin slightly angled exteriorly; basal third covered with setae; apex with 3 setae. Aedaegal guides short and acute. Hypandrium covered with 10-12 setae, with apical pair reaching two thirds to three-fourths of GL (Fig. 36 a, b). Hypandrial lobe with each part slender, apical half slightly widened. Gonostylus (Fig. 36 c) with DB elongate, about 3.52 times longer than broad, virtually straight or very slightly curved interiorly, apical lobe distinctly spathulate, apex rounded; dorsal side evenly covered with setae, except on most apical part; external margin almost straight, not forming any angle, with row of 4 elongate setae. VB with 2 small setae. IB apically with 1 seta close to apex and pair of setae one-third from apex. MB apex acute, with 1 seta close to the base.

Female: Unknown.

Diagnosis

Distinguished from E. longilobata in having the dorsal gonostylus branch apically spathulate and about 3.5 times longer than broad (Fig. 36 c), the hypandrium less setose with 10-12 setae (Fig. 36 a, b), each part of the hypandrial lobe with apical half only slightly widened and the gonocoxal lobe length 0.6-0.75 the gonocoxite width (Fig. 36 c); from other species in the E. parva group in having the dorsal branch spathulate and more elongated (Fig. 36 c), in combination with the gonocoxal lobes with apico-internal margin slightly angled exteriorly (Fig. 36 a).

Etymology

From Latin spatula, flat piece, relating to the the apical shape of the dorsal branch of the gonostylus.
