This species occurs in the South Central Plains of southcentral Arkansas. It has been found sympatrically with E. multiplicata complex in the vicinity of Caddo Valley, Clark County (K. J. Irwin, pers. comm.), so specimens from this area warrant close examination. A questionable record from southwestern Sevier County (USNM 545607 from 1951) warrants further examination. Trauth et al. (2004) plotted additional localities near Murfreesboro, Pike County, and well into the Ouachita Mountains near Mount Ida, Montgomery County, both of which are likely based on misidentifications but remain unsourced.
