Oviscape uniformly sclerotized, with 2 robust wide ventral hooks anterior of apex and short desclerotized area between them. Male with epandrium moderately elongate in profile, with lateral surstylus often somewhat pointed posteroventrally, densely covered with thick but short setulae; phallus glans with asymmetrical sclerites of acrophallus (conspicuously developed in E. wagae ) (see Korneyev, 2004: fig. 16, 1, 4; 2006 a: fig. 6 View Fig ).
