These two species are sympatric between 1200 and 2300 m, but at these lower elevation sites E. flavoscutellatus is much more frequently collected than E. devriesi. E. flavoscutellatus is one of the commonest nocturnal ichneumonids in lower montane forests in Central America. At many sites individuals are extremely abundant, often outnumbering all other species com- bined and literally hundreds of specimens have been collected at Monteverde, between January and April. It has been collected at almost every mid-altitude site that has been sampled, though it is absent from high altitude sites (2500+ m) in Costa Rica. In Costa Rica this species has been collected at the following sites: Finca Campana at 5 km NW. Dos Rios, Finca San Gabriel at 3 km W. of Dos Rios and Virgen de Socorro in Alajuela Province; 16 km S. San Isidro de Tejar, Tapanti, Turrialba and Volcan Irazii in Cartago Province; Cerro el Hacha, Rincon de la Vieja National Park, 4 km W. Santa Cecilia, Santa Rosa National Park, 5 km.
