(Figs 50–55)
Diagnosis. Forewing R2+3 and R4+5 forked; M four branched, M4 forked as illustrated. Hindwing M twobranched.Aedeagal arch pointed posteriorly; lateral endophallic sclerites broad anteriorly, irregular, distally slender, acuminate; three pairs of small sclerites mesally, with apices directed outward (Fig. 55). Similar to G. farallones n. sp., from which it differs in the forewing pattern of pigmentation, in wing venation and in endophallic sclerites.
Color (in 80% ethanol). Body brown. Head (Fig. 52): vertex brown with irregular ochre spots; front, postclypeus and genae brown with ochre spots, postgenae brown. Compound eyes ochre, ocelli hyaline, with ochre centripetal crescents; labrum brown, labral sclerites dark brown, anteclypeus brown. Maxillary palps brown, Mx 3–4 dark brown, Antennae brown. Thorax brown, tergal lobes of meso- and metathorax pale brown, thoracic pleura brown. Legs: coxae and trochanters brown, femora proximally cream, distally ochre; tibiae and tarsi dark brown. Forewings (Fig. 50), brown; veins dark brown. Hindwings (Fig. 51), pale brown, veins dark brown. Abdomen cream, clunium brown. Hypandrium brown, posterior margin and sides dark brown; epiproct and paraprocts pale brown. Phallosome brown, aedeagal arch and endophallic sclerites dark brown; external parameres pale brown basally, distally hyaline. Epiproct and paraprocts brown.
Morphology. As in diagnosis, plus the following: Head: H/MxW: 1.47; compound eyes large, H/d: 4.26; IO/ MxW: 0.75. Outer cusp of lacinial tips broad, with 8–9 denticles. Mx4/Mx2: 1.0. Forewings (Fig. 50): FW/W: 2.59; pterostigma: lp/wp: 3.31; areola postica tall, slanted posteriorly: al/ah: 2.48. Hindwings (Fig. 51): HW/w: 3.00; left wing without R-M crossvein. Hypandrium (Fig. 54), rounded posteriorly, one distal field of macrosetae on each side of longitudinal midline, setose. Phallosome (Fig. 55) almost straight anteriorly, side struts straight, slender, external parameres dilated distally, rounded, bearing pores. Paraprocts (Fig. 53), oval, with a macroseta near each sensory field and a distal setal field; sensory fields with 30–32 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Epiproct (Fig. 53) wide, semioval, rounded posteriorly, with one macroseta mesally, distal field of setae as illustrated.
