Antonov (sweeping grasslands) [1 brachypterous female and 1 fully winged female, PUPB].   Distribution. Bulgaria, Canada, Germany, Hungary, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, and USA( Triapitsyn 2005, Boyadzhiev & Triapitsyn 2007).   Comments. Aspreviously suspected by Triapitsyn (2005)and Boyadzhiev & Triapitsyn (2007), the female of  E. kaulbarsiindeed turned out to be just a brachypterous form of  E. carbonaria. The antennae and other morphological features are identical among  E. kaulbarsifrom Canadaand the specimens of  E. carbonariafrom Bulgariaand Hungary, hence the synonymy. Coloration of the legs seems to be quite variable in this species: the legs of the brachypterous female from near Montana, Bulgaria, are pale brown while the legs of the fully winged female from the same location are mostly brown to dark brown. To assist with recognition of  E. carbonaria, which has never been properly illustrated, we provide photographs of the antenna ( Fig. 1) and the reduced fore- ( Fig. 2) and hind ( Fig. 3) wings of the brachypterous female, as well as the forewing and the hind wing ( Fig. 4) of the macropterous female.
