Diagnostic characters.
General color gray, length of fore wing
16.5–18.6 mm
in males and
20.4–24.4 mm
in females (
Froehlich 1990
); tergum 10 of males somewhat triangular, apex elliptical, turned down; apex of male paraprocts hooked (
Froehlich 1990
) curved backwards (
Fig. 2
c); male subgenital plate rounded; pronotum of nymphs narrow, abdominal terga 1–9 with dorsal spines (
Froehlich 1990
).
Remarks.
Brauer (1866)
did not illustrate
G. reticulata
.
Jewett (1960)
illustrated the male and female, but his figures do not emphasize characters that are currently recognized as important for the recognition of the species.
Froehlich (1990)
redescribed the female and the nymph. We provide figures of the male terminalia in dorsal, ventral and lateral views (
Fig. 2
).
