03C17C6BFFD9FFF5B21D430BFB3E359E.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Szczytko & Kondratieff (2015) placed this species in the I. burksi group with I. cotta Ricker, 1952 and I. orata Frison, 1942. Egg characteristics uniting these species include a concave crosssection, well-developed collar, distinct ridges offsetting the cell impressions, and lack of an eclosion line (Szczytko & Kondratieff 2015). Eggs of I. burksi from Indiana and Kentucky, however, possess a distinct eclosion line (Figs. 4 ‒ 6) that easily distinguishes this species from I. cotta (Szczytko & Kondratieff 2015, figs. 10.14, 10.18) and I. orata (Szczytko & Kondratieff 2015, figs. 37.9, 37.12). Each of the other three characteristics listed above are exhibited by I. burksi.	en	Grubbs, Scott A.

03C17C6BFFDFFFF3B3EB43FFFC0D323A.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Szczytko & Kondratieff (2015) placed I. sandbergi in the I. similis (Hagen, 1861) Group with I. bellona Banks, 1911, I. cherokee Szczytko and Kondratieff, 2015, I. distincta Nelson, 1976, I. major Nelson and Kondratieff, 1983, I. similis, and I. starki Szczytko and Kondratieff, 2015. The eggs of I. bellona and I. distincta remain undescribed. The combination of a concave profile and lack of a collar easily distinguishes the eggs of I. sandbergi from I. cherokee, I. major, I. similis, and I. starki. The eggs of I. major and I. similis are round in crosssection, possess a low raised collar, and lack a concavity (Szczytko & Kondratieff 2015, figs. 29.7, 51.15). The eggs of I. cherokee and I. starki have a concave profile but possess either a low, buttonlike collar (I. cherokee; Szczytko & Kondratieff 2015, Figs. 7.24 ‒ 7.25) or a distinct, elevated collar (I. starki; Szczytko & Kondratieff 2015, Fig. 55.21).	en	Grubbs, Scott A.
