This newly described species (Steffen et al., 2014) is currently known only from the Slunger Creek valley in Lake Catherine State Park, Hot Spring County. While similar in appearance to the syntopic larval E. multiplicata complex, surveys in the surrounding region have thus far failed to uncover additional populations (K. J. Irwin, pers. comm.).
