Two species are described as new: E. hoplites (Papua New Guinea) and E. insidiatrix (Vanua Levu, Fiji Islands). Both are illustrated with scanning electron micrographs, as are E. szentivanyi Taylor and E. emeryi (Forel). Notes are given on distribution and variation of several previously described species.
