| Abstract: | Based on morphologic, biometric and zoogeographic characters, E. gambianus, E. crypturus and E. angolensis are considered to be well defined species. E. gambianus parvus is a junior synonym of E. crypturus and E. pousarguesi is a junior synonym of E. gambianus. E. wahlbergi is first recorded for Sudan. |
