Type species: marginalis Haliday

Literature: Griffiths I-859; Wharton (1994); Belokobylskij (2005) (key to Palaearctic species); Kula and Zolnerowich (2005) (includes electron micrographs of E. marginalis ).

Hosts: Known only for E. marginalis (see below).

Notes: Four species (Taxapad), two Holarctic, one each from the west and east Palaearctic. Close to Trachionus and possibly congeneric (see literature cited above), a hypothesis supported by recent rearing records (below).
