Unlike these species, the antennal groove lacks a distinct triangular dark brown to black mark below the antennae, although there can be slight darkening. Like E. irwini, silvery grey dorsocentral vittae are present but are wider than that species, with a width equal to half the distance between vittae; and vittae extend through the scutellum, but unlike that species they extend around the posterior edge. Like E. frankadelia and E. matilei, the antennal arista is pubescent. Like all species except E. frankadelia, the orbital setae are strong with the posterior seta slightly stronger than the anterior seta, and the anterior dorsocentral seta is closer to the transverse suture than to the middle seta. Unlike all other species, the ptilinial suture is dark brown to black pruinose along its entire length terminating below the level of paired facial spots, a median brownish spot is present on the face above the ventral paired spots and below the facial carina, the anterior orbital seta is closer to the posterior seta than to the lunule edge, the anepisternum is dark brown in the posterodorsal quadrant, and the midtibia has 2 strong spurs.

Named for my good friend and mentor, Dr. Michael E. Irwin, who was one of the collectors of this and other species of this genus.</p><p>Diagnosis. Like E. albeto, E. helenae, and E. matilei, this species has strong, proclinate, parallel­sided ocellar setae, silvery grey pruinescence on the fronto­orbital plate (although unlike E. helenae, this pruinescence covers it entirely), and paired spots on the ventral part of the face. Like E. albeto, silvery grey dorsocentral vittae are present but are narrower than that species, with a width equal to one­fifth the distance between vittae; and vittae extend through the scutellum, but unlike that species they extend only along the lateral edge, and the posterior edge is pale yellow from posterior view. Like E. helenae and E. matilei, the ptilinial suture is dark brown to black pruinose only along the dorsal part terminating above the level of paired facial spots, and the antennal groove has a distinct dark brown to black mark extending medially from the dorsal part of this suture. Like E. helenae, E. matilei, and E. webbi, the anterior orbital seta is closer to the lunule edge than to the posterior seta. Like E. helenae and E. webbi, the antennal arista is short plumose. Like all species except E. frankadelia, the orbital setae are strong with the posterior seta slightly stronger than the anterior seta, and the anterior dorsocentral seta is closer to the transverse suture than to the middle seta. Like all species except E. albeto, the face lacks a median spot and the midtibia has 1 strong spur. In the male: sternites 2–5 are 2 X wider than long; the surstylus is long and strap­like, gradually curved medially, with the outer surface setose and pilose, the inner surface is bare, and the tip is bare and curving to a sharp medially hooked point; the aedeagus is slightly tapered distally, the ventral surface has paired ridges forming a median furrow; the hypandrium is a broad band with the anterior and posterior edges parallel, with 1–2 small setulae posterolaterally; the paramere is present, tusk­like, and curved outwards, with 1 small setula at the base beside the hypandrial setula. In the female: sternites 2–5 are 2– 3 X wider than long; syntergosternite 7 has a longitudinal dark mark lateral of the spiracle; sternite 8 is as wide as long, with posteriorly­directed lateral arms and an anteriorly­directed medial extension, and the paired central processes are slightly elongated, lacking a distal hook.</p><p>Adults, ɗ, Ψ.

Named for the dipterist Dr. Donald W. Webb, my good friend and one of the collectors of this and several species of this genus.</p><p>Diagnosis. Like E. frankadelia, this species has weaker, divergent ocellar setae, the face lacks paired spots, the ptilinial suture and antennal groove are unmarked, the scutum and scutellum are brownish orange, lacking vittae or silvery grey pruinescence, and the anepisternum is pale without dark marks, although in this species is paler. Like E. helenae, E. irwini, and E. matilei, the anterior orbital seta is closer to the lunule edge than to the posterior seta. Like E. helenae and E. irwini, the antennal arista is short plumose. Like all species except E. frankadelia, the orbital setae are strong with the posterior seta slightly stronger than the anterior seta, and the anterior dorsocentral seta is closer to the transverse suture than to the middle seta. Like all species except E. albeto, the face lacks a median spot and the midtibia has 1 strong spur. Unlike all other species, the fronto­orbital plate lacks pruinescence and displays shiny ground color, and the face is silvery grey pruinose. In the male: the surstylus is subcircular in lateral view, is setose laterally, and is entirely pilose; the aedeagus only tapers distally, the ventral surface has a median longitudinal furrow; the hypandrium is a broad band with the anterior and posterior edges parallel; the paramere is present, tusk­like, curved outwards, and has several small setulae at the base. In the female: sternites 2–5 are less than 2 X broader than long; sternite 8 is elongated but tapering anteriorly, with anteriorly­directed lateral arms, and the paired central processes are slightly elongated, each with a distal hook.</p><p>Adults, ɗ, Ψ. Body length 5.7–7.1 mm.</p><p>Head (Fig. 3 F). 1.3–1.4 X higher than long, 1.6–1.8 X wider than high; eye slightly higher than long. Vertex orange, but darker brown behind ocellar triangle to postocellar setae; outer vertical seta as strong as anterior orbital seta, inner seta 1.4–1.6 X longer. Ocellar triangle covered with brown pruinescence continuous with vertex. Ocellar setae weak, half length of anterior orbital seta and much thinner; divergent. Postocellar setae strong, nearly as strong as anterior orbital seta. Occiput and median occipital sclerite orange. Frons with anterolateral part with light dusting of silvery white pruinescence visible in profile below fronto­orbital plate. Fronto­orbital plate shiny brownish­orange, lacking pruinescence. Orbital setae strong; posterior seta 1.2–1.5 X longer than anterior; anterior seta arising slightly closer to edge of lunule than to posterior seta; anterior setae slightly closer together than posterior setae. Antennal scape, facial carina, and area lateral to antennal base pale yellow, with light dusting of silvery white pruinescence. Antennal pedicel brown; 1st flagellomere brown with orange basally, 1.5–1.7 X longer than high; arista short plumose, with longest rays 1.2–1.5 mm and 0.6–0.8 X height of 1st flagellomere. Face dark, covered with pale silvery grey pruinescence; antennal grooves unmarked. Parafacial and gena dark, covered with pale silvery grey pruinescence; postgena orange, covered with silvery grey pruinescence. Clypeus dark brown. Maxillary palpus brownish; subcylindrical, nearly spatulate; with black setulae.</p><p>Thorax. Scutum 1.1–1.3 X longer than wide; scutellum with width at base 1.5–1.8 X greater than length; scutum and scutellum brownish orange dorsally, fading abruptly to nearly yellow at lateral edges. Pleural area entirely pale yellowish orange, as on lateral edge of scutum. Distances between anterior and middle dorsocentral setae and between middle and posterior setae subequal, with anterior seta closer to transverse suture than to middle seta. Legs. Yellowish orange, except as noted. Forefemur darker orange to brown on distal third, with patch of greyish brown pruinescence on anterodorsal surface; ctenidium as evenly spaced (each 0.19–0.23 mm apart) row of 13–16 setulae; posterior surface with short row of smaller setae. Foretibia with brown bands basally, sub­basally, and apically. Midtibia with 1 strong spur. Wing. Length 5.3–6.3 mm; 2.4–2.7 X longer than high. Discal medial cell 3.9–4.2 X longer than crossvein dm­cu. Halter yellow with darkened knob.</p><p>Abdomen. Dark greyish brown pruinose (some specimens vary in having certain areas, especially along midline and on distal segments, with reduced or no pruinescence, showing orange ground color; in most extreme case, dark pruinescence only present laterally and along posterior portion of each tergite); slightly shorter than scutum. Sternites yellowish orange; with sparse fine setulae; in female, sternites 2–5 1.7–1.8 X broader than long, with slightly elongated setae along posterior edges.</p><p>Male genitalia. Surstylus articulated with epandrium (Figs. 14 D–E); subcircular from lateral view; posterior edge slightly sharpened; entirely pilose; setose laterally and on both sides of posterior edge. Aedeagus (Figs. 14 A–B) evenly thick through basal half, then tapering distally; ventral surface with median longitudinal furrow to broadly open gonopore; dorsally with median longitudinal ridge. Hypandrium (Fig. 14 A) a broad band with anterior and posterior edges parallel, with posterior edge slightly concave. Paramere (Figs. 14 A, C) present, tusk­like, curved outwards; with several small setulae at base. Aedeagal apodeme normal, thick; branched posteriorly into 2 arms, appearing as “Y”; curvature such that ventral surface concave from lateral view. Ejaculatory apodeme subequal to aedeagal apodeme.</p><p>Female terminalia . Sternite 8 (Figs. 15 A–B) elongate but tapering anteriorly, width 0.6 X length at posterior end to 0.25 X length anteriorly; with only anteriorly­directed lateral arms sclerotized, with posterior part densely covered with small bumps; paired central processes originating on posterior third of sternite 8, short (but longer than wide) and extending slightly beyond posterior edge of sternite, with medially­oriented distal hooks; process setose. Spermathecae round; single spermatheca 0.13 mm diameter, paired 0.10 mm each; paired spermathecae on short stalks after bifurcation (as in Fig. 13 D).</p><p>Immatures. Egg. Micropylar end slightly enlarged, globose (Fig. 15 C). Eclosion end with distinct lobes, 3 on each side.</p><p>Biology. Specimens of this species have been collected in all months from July through April, except September. One specimen was collected in association with a species of Psychotria L. ( Rubiaceae), but specimens are most commonly collected using Malaise traps, often placed across forest paths and along streams.</p><p>Type material.
