Christiansen & Bellinger (1980 , p. 851) wrote later, “the only certain record of this species is from the type locality [ North Carolina , USA ], but 2 specimens from Canada may belong here. One from Banff, Alberta , is similar in all features seen except the chaetotaxy of the second abdominal segment. The second is from Churchill, Manitoba , the type locality of E. lateropicta ”. They also suggested the possibility that the latter species may be a senior synonym of E. gisini , rather than of E. comparata as supposed earlier. Thus a rather high level of uncertainty still exists. General distribution: Nearctic.
