Comments.
Known only from Sudan (
Daday 1915
) and the western Sahara (
Margalef 1948
). This species should be closely compared with
E. latirostris
from Senegal. Both species share a rounded carapace hinge line, posterior abdominal segments with a single dorsomedial spine, male rostrum quadrate and female rostrum triangular.
Eocyzicus saharicus
may also be a synonym of this species.
