"Diagnosis: This species is closely related to Eremohates scopulatus Muma, E. purpusi Roewer and E. tuberculatus (Kraepelin). It differs from scopulatus in cheliceral profile, number of palpal papillae and number of abdominal ctenidia. The cheliceral profile and number of palpal papillae distinguish it from purpusi. The coloration, cheliceral profile and palpal papillae are the same as on tuberculatus but it has 8 ( and one spurious ) instead of 6 abdominal." (Muma 1963, p. 3)
