Size (all macropterous): specimens from Chiang Mai: males, length 7.10-7.60, width 1.80-1.96; females, length 8.10, width 2.25-2.28; specimens from Phang Nga: male, length 6.70, width 1.77; female, length 7.10, width 1.95. Mesosternum 3.0-3.1 x length of metasternum. Male: fore femur moderately incrassate, simple, without tubercle at basal part; abdominal sterna III-VI with narrow median groove. Male genitalia simple, pygophore without caudal projection, posterior part only with long setae. Female: fore trochanter, fore femur and fore tibia with rows of long, stiff setae; genitalia small but visible in lateral view (Fig. 19K ). Remarks. The sample from Phang Nga (southern Thailand) consists of smaller specimens compared to those from the type locality. However, all other characteristics show that these specimens are conspecific. See Remarks for E. boukali sp. nov. below. Distribution. Thailand: Chiang Mai ( Andersen 1998 ), Kanchanaburi, and Phang Nga (new records) (Fig. 24 ).
