Glossary (beta!)

Origin/Endemic status: Endemic

Taxonomy Comments: We agree with Ward (1968) in recognizing this as distinct in the E. sericeus complex (with E. macilentus) in the rocklands of s. FL. Specimens with corresponding morphology were cited only for s. FL by Ooststroom (1934) but it should be sought in other regions.
