( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 Q, 2 Q, 3 P, 5 I, 6 Q, 7 Q)
Description: Female (n=2). Body length 7.0 mm.
Head. Ca. 0.6 times as long as wide. Clypeus 0.7 times as long as wide, roundly convex in lateral view ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 Q). Face strongly convex medially ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 Q), 0.5 times as long as wide. Frons with a small median horn between each antennal socket, its apex relateively pointed ( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 Q, 3 P). OOL 1.6–1.8 (HT: 1.8) times as long as OD; POL 1.8–2.0 (HT: 2.0) times as long as OD. Mandible with very narrow ventral flange by basal 0.6, its base flat. MSL 1.1 times as long as BWM. Antenna with 34 flagellomeres. F1 1.7 times as long as F2.
Mesosoma. Densely punctate, punctures on lateral lobes of mesoscutum (excluding near notaulus) separated by 0.3–1.5 (usually ca. 1.0) times their diameter. Epomia weak and short. Lateral area of pronotum entirely punctate except for ventral area longitudinally striated. Both sides of mesoscutum near tegula weakly and obtusely produced posteriorly. Propodeum entirely densely punctate except for narrow smooth area present anteriorly. Anterior transverse carina of propodeum slightly present on lateral section. Lateromedian longitudinal carina of propodeum present on anterior section. Lateral longitudinal carina of propodeum largely absent. Posterior transverse carina of propodeum complete. Fore wing length 4.5 mm. Fore coxa with weak ridge antero-dorsally. Hind femur 5.5–6.0 (HT: 6.0) times as long as maximum depth in lateral view. Hind TS1 2.0 times as long as TS2.
Metasoma. T1–T4 densely punctate ( Figs. 6 View FIGURE 6. T 1 Q, 7 Q). T1 1.2–1.3 (HT: 1.3) times as long as maximum width, its median dorsal carina present on ca. basal 0.5 of tergite ( Fig. 6 View FIGURE 6. T 1 Q). T2 0.9 times as long as maximum width. T2–T4 each with moderate a pair of oblique groove ( Fig. 7 View FIGURE 7. T 2 Q). Ovipositor sheath ca. 0.9 times as long as fore wing, 2.1– 2.2 (HT: 2.2) times as long as hind tibia.
Colouration. Body (excluding wings and legs) black, except for: apical part of clypeus, tip of mandible and posterior margin of each metasomal tergite tinged with reddish-brown, reddish posterior margins on T2 and T3 broader than other tergites; ventral surface of flagellum blackish-brown; palpi, posterodorsal corner of pronotum, tegula, membranous parts of sternites and posterior part of subgenital plate yellowish-brown; ovipositor reddishbrown to yellowish-brown. Wings hyaline; veins and pterostigma brown except for yellow wing base. Legs (hind leg: Fig. 5 View FIGURE 5 I) yellowish-brown to reddish-brown, except for: apex of hind femur more or less darkened; subbasal band of hind tibia slightly darkened; apical part of hind tibia blackish-brown to black; hind tarsus black with yellow areas on TS1–TS3 and slightly on TS4. Basal yellow areas of TS1 ca. 0.5 length of TS1 and of TS2–TS3 shorter than each black area.
Male. Unknown.
Material examined. JAPAN: [Holotype] F, Hokkaido Pref., Zenibako, 24. vi. 1968, T. Kocha leg. (KU); [Paratype] 1F, Hokkaido Pref., Toyotomi, 11–13. vii. 1968, H. Takizawa leg. (KU).
Distribution ( Fig. 13 View FIGURE 13 ). Japan (Hokkaido).
Biology. Unknown.
Etymology. The specific name is from the locality of holotype, Zenibako.
Remarks. This species resembles G. ceratites in the body colouration especially broad reddish posterior margin of T2 and T3 but it can be distinguished by the frontal horn small, less than height of F1 (large, ca. 2.0 times in ceratites ) and the basal yellow areas of TS1 ca. 0.5 length of TS1 (ca. 0.3 in ceratites ).
