Diagnosis

This species can be easily differentiated from all other species of Eugenys by the following characters: hypopods with a singular apical tenaculum (10–14 present in E. singularis sp. nov. and E. cymosa , one in E. micra sp. nov., E. panamensis and E. upsilon sp. nov.); antennal flagellomeres with patch of darkened sensilla (present in E. upsilon , absent in remaining species); aedeagus straight, with distinguishable paramere (aedeagus curved, without distinguishable paramere in E. upsilon ).
