E. jaumei is relatively brightly marked in yellow-orange and very small, up to c. 1.3 cm (0.51 in) in snout–to–vent length. It is part of a closely related Cuban group that contains five additional described species (E. cubanus, E. etheridgei, E. iberia, E. limbatus and E. orientalis) and at least one undescribed species; most of which are of tiny size, relatively brightly colored and possibly aposematic (at least E. iberia and E. orientalis have alkaloid toxins in their skin).^[2]
