The upper part of the abdomen is slightly wider than the thorax. The two segments are separated by the inner ring. More pores on half of the equator of the thorax than in G. japonica (15-20), the main difference between the two species. The species differs from Dictyoceras xiphephorum in having cephalis with a neck.
