Diagnosis. Males of G. foxi resemble those of G. heleios , G. iviei , G. caaguara , G. januari and G. camisea by the presence of anterior tooth ( Figs. 90A, C View FIGURE 90 ). They are distinguished from the latter species by the widely excavated conductor lamina in dorsal view ( Figs. 91C View FIGURE 91 , 92H View FIGURE 92 ). Females resemble those of G. heleios and G. hirsutissima by having a basal constriction on the spermathecae ( Fig. 92D View FIGURE 92 ). They are differentiated from the latter species by the presence of a well-developed CFO ( Fig. 90E View FIGURE 90 ).
