Systematics: Zhou, et al (2011) stated that A. jiangsuensis is closest to A. alisiana, but can be distinguished by the following characteristics: 1. submedian dorsal macroducts are absent on abdominal segments iii-vi (present on A. alisiana; 2. Gland tubercles occurring on mesothorax lateral to abdominal segment iii (absent on A. alisiana. (Zhou, et al., 2012). Takagi (2015) examined the photomicrographs in the paper by Zhou, et al. (2011) and determined that it has short gland spines on the lateral sides of the metathorax and fir first to third abdominal segments. It also appeared to hae a pair of well-developedc setae between the bases of the median trullae. Therefore, Takagi determined that this species belongs to Pseudaulacaspis.
