( Plate 2D View PLATE 2 , Fig. 97-104 View Figures 97-104 )

Description. Length. Male 8.85-9.40 mm., female unknown.

External morphology. Moderately large, somewhat slender species. General color dark brown to black. Forewings with numerous yellow spots on veins and cells; mesonotum black with few yellow spots; pronotum dark brown to black, bullae dark yellow; crown light to dark brown; eyes light to dark brown; face light to dark yellow, clypeus with suffused orange brown, longitudinal stripe on inner lateral margins; clypellus with short medial orange stripe; head narrower than pronotum, anterior margin obtusely rounded; crown short, wider than width of eyes, slightly produced anteriorly, lateral margins convergent basally; pronotum large, slightly longer medially than crown, surface bullated; mesonotum large, about half longer medially than pronotum; clypeus long, narrow, lateral margins broadly convex; clypellus short, about 1/3 as long as clypeus, narrow, apex slightly flared laterally.

Male genitalia. Pygofer large, triangulate, with cleft lobe apically, moderately long, digitate caudoventral lobe, glabrous ( Fig. 97 View Figures 97-104 ); aedeagus long, narrow, tubular, sinuate in dorsal and lateral views, base of shaft triangulate with fine teeth in distal 1/6 on dorsal margin, gonopore in distal 4/5 of shaft ( Fig. 98, 99 View Figures 97-104 ); style long with large base in lateral view, apophysis long with long seta apically ( Fig. 100, 101 View Figures 97-104 ); dorsal connective long, narrow ( Fig. 98, 99 View Figures 97-104 ); connective large, arms narrow, very broad, medial ridge absent, stem small, sub-triangulate ( Fig. 102 View Figures 97-104 ); subgenital plate very long, broad, large apical spine curved laterally in ventral view, setose along outer lateral margin in distal 1/8 ( Fig. 103, 104 View Figures 97-104 ).

Material examined. Holotype male. LAOS: 24-29.iv.2001, Khammouan prov., 18 o 07’N 104 o 29’E, Ban Khoun Ngeun , 200m., Vit Kuban, leg. / Entomological expedition, “Laos 2001”, Moravian Museum, Brno, Czech Republic ( MMBC) GoogleMaps . Paratypes, 2 males, same data as holotype ( MMBC, MLBM), 1 male, LAOS-C: 19-31.v.2001, Kham Mouan prov., 18 o 07’N 04 o 29’E., Ban Khoun Ngeun, 200 m., L. Dembicky, leg. / Entomological expedition, “Laos 2001”, Moravian Museum, Brno, Czech Republic ( MMBC), 1 male, LAOS-N: (Oudomxai), 1-9.v.2002, 1100 m., 20 o 45’N 102 o 09’E., Oudom Xai (17 km. Nee), Vit Kuban, leg. ( MMBC).

Etymology. The name of this species is descriptive for the inwardly curved, apical spine of the subgenital plate.

Remarks. Among species with large spinate subgenital plate, G. penita can be separated by the inward projection of the spine, by the sinuate aedeagus and presence of the apical stylar seta.
