Third antennal segment acuminate; dark brown. Face silvery pollinose. Frons, upper part shining black, lower part silvery pollinose with subshining median line; eyes dichoptic, they are close to each other for a distance equal to half the length of ocellar triangle. Occiput, upper half subshining black behind ocelli, lower half silvery pollinose. Thorax . Humeri dark brown. Mesonotum (viewed obliquely from front) subshining black, along anterior margin greyish pollinose; silvery pollinose from the side. Scutellum black, with short, pale hairs. Dorsocentral hairs very weakly developed. Halter dark brown. Legs. Trochanters and base of femora dark brown, femora dark brown and shining ventrally on all legs, knees, tibiae, tarsal segments brown, last segment darker. Only short hairs on first four femora; 6 weak spines on 3rd femur. Subapical (distal) spines on first four tibiae present, but weakly developed. No anteromedial hairs on 3rd tibia. Hind trochanter with short white hairs on ventral side. Pulvilli as long as last tarsal segment. Wing. No wing on HT. Fourth costal section as long as third costal section. Cross-vein R-M beyond 1/3 of discal cell. Pterostigma fully coloured. Hairs on tegula absent. Abdomen . Viewed obliquely from front T1 brownish pollinose, T2 with brownish, triangle-shaped patch in the middle, otherwise abdomen shining black. Hairs dispersed, short and weakly developed. Four black lateral spines on first tergite. Postabdomen in dorsal view: T5 1.3 times as long as ST8. Genitalia without dissection: black, medium sized. Genitalia. Surstyli broad, parallel; ST8 wide, m.a. large ( Fig. 23B ). SES borders only clear in lateral view; gonopods asymmetrical, OG longer; phallic guide broad, sides parallel, tip narrowing and with small hairs; in ventral view ( Fig. 23D ), bent towards SS in lateral view ( Fig. 23E ); phallus trifid with teeth on the branches ( Fig. 23A ); ejaculatory apodeme short, broadening in the end; sperm pump flat, oval. Female The AT of this species is in MRAC; not studied. The ovipositor of a female associated with males was drawn ( Fig. 39R ). Remarks —There was one female at ISNB identified by Hardy (in 1960) as E. ghesquierei , but the affinities with the HT are uncertain, since both are damaged specimens. Distribution— Angola , Democratic Republic of Congo , Namibia , South Africa , Swaziland , Zimbabwe .
