Remarks.

Effossana gloma comb. nov. was recovered with low branch support (SR <50) as sister to E. intrinseca sp. nov. + E. circumnota sp. nov., supported by a single homoplastic character, 9:0, crown-face transition smooth medially and with striae near eye margin. Effossana gloma comb. nov. can be easily separated from the other species of the genus by the aedeagal shaft (Fig. 33L, M) with processes near base and the apex without processes.
