This species recalls in appearance Chelisoches ? picticornisj 

 Kirb., but it is not so long and is more thick-set. It appears 

 to be allied to the little-known Forficula lohophoroiiUs of 

 Dohrn, of which G. picticornis may be the male, which is 

 not definitely known. F. ares is allied to Anechura hermes 

 and may have to be moved to that genus. Its uniform black 

 colour and the form of the forceps distinguish it.
