Diagnosis.

Remarks.
J.L. Barnard (1964)
originally distinguished
Ensayara
on the claw-like maxilliped palp article 4; the reduced inner plate of maxilla 2 and the mandibular palp which is attached level with the molar. As more species have been described only the maxilliped character remains as a significant distinguishing character.
