| description |
A green species with moderately reticulated wing venation; not as densely reticulated as some members, and more reticulated than others, this species falls somewhat in the middle of the spectrum. The clavi (inner part of the wings) are also reticulated, separating this species from others that have an unreticulated clavi; the whole wing therefore has reticulations. The female pregenital sternite has the posterior margin concavely rounded. The size range for males is 9.5-10.5 mm in length; females are typically 10.5-11.5 mm (female Gyponanas tend to be 1.0 mm longer than males, though some are even longer) (Hamilton 1982, DeLong & Freytag 1964). |

NOTE: Gyponana can be a challenging genus to identify, with many species looking similar to one another and not being able to be identified to species unless [a male is] dissected. Further complicating this situation is that the genus in general is likely overdescribed, with numerous species likely synonymous and needing to be lumped. It is important to take clear photos showing the wing venation, and get measurements and underside photos for size and sex. These records on here are tentative for now until male specimens are obtained. |
