Enum values that declare methods are a subclass of the actual enum type, so calling getClass() returns a synthetic subclass of the enum. To retrieve the type of the enum, use getDeclaringClass().

In the following example, Binop.MULT.getClass() returns the anonymous class Binop$2, while Binop.MULT.getDeclaringClass() returns the class Binop.

enum Binop {
  MULT {
    @Override
    int apply(int x) {
      return x * x;
    }
  },
  ADD {
    @Override
    int apply(int x) {
      return x + x;
    }
  };

  abstract int apply(int x);
}

public class Test {
  static void printEnumClass(Enum theEnum) {
    System.err.println(theEnum.getClass());
    System.err.println(theEnum.getDeclaringClass());
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    printEnumClass(Binop.ADD);
  }
}

Prints:

class Binop$2
class Binop
