Phallosome concave anteriorly, aedeagal arch projected in the middle, truncate. Anterior endophallic sclerites broadly triangular, with a slender arm projected posteriorly, distally acuminate. Posterior endophallic sclerites broadly U-shaped, with a truncate mesal projection directed outward, and a posterior, curved acuminate projection, directed outward. Similar to G. caucana n. sp., for differences with it, see diagnosis of the latter above.
