Remarks
The original description was based on two females and two males, of which a pair was found. As explained above it is reasonable to suppose that the syntype series of G. bipunctatus and G. sexpunctatus are exactly the same specimens. The same specimen is designated lectotype for both G. sexpunctatus Ashmead, 1893 q. v. and G. bipunctatus Ashmead in Riley, Ashmead & Howard, 1894 to ensure objective synonymy. The lectotype is glued to a micropin and is entire. This species is a Coptera , and Coptera sexpunctata is a new combination.
