Rem.:

Sampling depth (sub-Antarct.): 0-1000-2000 m.
For Park (1993, p.22) this species is very closely related to E. nodifrons, the female can be distinguished from that of nodifrons by the absence of a rostral knob, and by Md, of which the endopod is relatively short and has only 2 setae; the male can be distinguished from nodifrons by the presence of only 3 setae on the mandibular endopod.
