Remarks
- Systematics: A. bambusae is very similar to A. gudalura, and the possibility may not be excluded that the two belong to the same species. (Takagi, 2015)
- Structure: Puparium of female circular, moderately convex, white, opaque; exuviae eccentric, reddish brown. Adult female yellowish, tinged with dull purple, elongate, sharply contracted behind the cephalothoracic area, then widening again to the segment immediately preceding the pygidium (Green, 1922a).
