Lower eye lobes 4 times as long as the genae. Head and pronotum very dense and very finely punctate. Pronotal lateral spine very small, conically pointed. Elytra rounded apically, very dense and finely punctate. Red, reddish-brown tomentose, the elytra marbled on posterior half with light yellow. The two apical thirds of the antennomeres IV and VIII, antennomeres V, VI, VII, IX and XI, except at the base, and antennomere segment X, except on basal part, dark brown. Length: 4 mm. Width: 1 1/ 4 mm. Type from Trinidad, XII.1953, G. and Helga Frey leg. – 1 paratypesame data as holotype.” Later, Breuning (1974)redescribed the species (translated): “Close to hirsutaDeG., but the antennomere III much shorter than the IV, the lower eye lobes 4 times longer than the genae, the head and pronotum very densely and very finely punctate, the lateral spine of the pronotum very small, the elytra very densely punctate and different general appearance. Red, covered with reddish-brown pubescence. The elytra vaguely mottled on the posterior half with pale yellow. The two apical thirds of the antennomeres IV and VIII, the antennomeres V, VI, VII, IX and XI, except at the extreme base, and the antennomere X, except at the base, dark brown. Length: 4 mm. Width: 1.25 mm.”  It is very difficult to recognize the species only with the description and redescription, without seeing a photograph of the holotypeor paratype, especially because the general appearance is very similar to other species of the genus, as for example,  Estola ignobilisBates, 1872(see photograph of a syntypeon Bezark 2022). Furthermore, seeing photographs of the paratype, the general color and color of the pubescence do not agree well with those in the descriptions. Even the key provided by Breuning (1974)does not help because many features used in the couplets are questionable or even subjective. For example,  E. ignobilisand  E. freyiwere separated in the alternative of couplet “51” (translated): “Elytra densely dotted with very small, fairly distinct whitish spots,” leading to  E. ignobilis / “Elytra without such spots,” leading to  E. freyi. The feature used is not easy to be recognized and, often, is variable intraspecifically. Fortunately,  Estola freyidiffers from  E. ignobilis, and also from nearly all species of the genus, by the large size of the eyes. It can be easily recognized by the large upper eye lobes ( Fig. 15), which are also moderately near each other (it is not a sexual feature in the genus). In  E. ignobilis( Fig. 16), the upper eye lobes are narrower and distant from each other.  Estola freyiis illustrated for the first time here.
