Material examined.

CHINA: Yunnan: 1 female (SWU), Xiaoheijiang Forest Park, Simao District, Pu’er City, 24.VII.2009, Zong-Qing Wang leg.

Remarks.

This species resembles E. sp. 1 with the basal half of anal areas yellow on tegmina, but differs from the latter by the orange band on distal half of tegmina, while the latter with three large yellow spots on distal half of tegmina. The last two sternites of this species are metallic bluish black, the remaining sternites are brownish black in the middle and orange laterally. The tegmina pattern of this species can be easily distinguished from the other species of this genus, which indicates it could be a new species. However, because no male specimen is available to us, we record it here for future study.

Distribution.
