Remarks
- Systematics: This species seems most closely related to A. hawaiiensis, but can be told by the absence of the band of ducts on the 2 pygidial segments (Rao & Ferris, 1952).
- Structure: Median pygidial lobes with their apices somewhat separated and with a pair of small setae or gland-spines between; basally with a slender, club-shaped paraphysis arising from the median angle and a very small thickening at the lateral angle (Rao & Ferris, 1952).
- General Remarks: Description and illustration by Rao & Ferris (1952).
