This specimen is established as the lectotype.  Giordani Soika (1978)described  E. cruciferoides( Fig. 12) and noted that it resembles  E. crucifera bolliformisbut also noted that they differ in the “punctation of the clypeus, punctation and color (p. 29)”. We compared the typeof  E. cruciferoidesand to the typeof  E. bolliformisand, although the former is known only from the type, we maintain it as a different species based on the following features: the punctures on clypeus are coarser and extend to the apical region; the punctation on the mesepisternum is denser, with the interspaces forming carinae, particularly in the center-basal region; the pubescence on the head and mesosoma is slightly longer, most evident on the frons and scape. Although  E. cruciferoidesis known only from the typespecimen, we compared it with the typical  E. verticalisand no morphological differences were found besides having the ferrugineous marks contiguous with the yellow marks along body. As we observed for  E. fraternusand  E. cruciferavar. bolliformis, specimens found the the southern USAand/or  Mexicopresent ferrugineous marks along the body. As with  E. verticalis,  E. cruciferoidesalso has the clypeus with coarse punctation and long pubescence along the body, including on the scape (longer than the pedicel). For these reasons, we treat  E. cruciferoidesas a new synonym of  E. verticalis. 1917355187 [199,509,752,774] Pennsylvania 29 30 1 Pennsylvania holotype 1917355144 [199,527,1150,1172] United States of America Colorado 29 30 1 Colorado holotype 1917355160 [199,1436,1457,1479] Coconino Co. 1829 Oak Creek Canon Thomas' Ranch 29 30 1 Arizona holotype 1917355205 [199,627,1794,1816] White Mts 29 30 1 Novo Mexico holotype 1917355150 [636,1006,1794,1816] United States of America 1981 Rio Ruidoso 29 30 1 holotype 1917355154 [199,457,1948,1970] Oregon 29 30 1 Oregon holotype 1917355181 [199,797,182,204] La Trappe Canada Quebec 30 31 2 Quebec holotype 1917355151 [807,1108,182,204] Canada Ontario 30 31 1 Ontario paratype 1917355169 [199,843,857,879] Nogares & di Orizaba Mexico 1540 Messico 30 31 1 holotype
