Systematics: Cerococcus stellatus is unique in having multilocular pores absent on venter (Lambdin & Kosztarab, 1977a).
Structure: Adult female body is nearly circular, excluding the protruding caudal apex of the abdomen (Morrison & Morrison, 1927). Test of female stellate (Lambdin & Kosztarab, 1977a). The adult female of A. stellatus can be diagnosed by the following combination of character-states: (i) dorsum with three sizes of 8-shaped pore; (ii) largest 8-shaped pore in swirls on head, thorax and anterior abdominal segments; (iii) smallest pores on posterior abdominal segments and in apices of each stigmatic pore band; (iv) cribriform plates oval, in submedial groups of two on each side of abdominal segment IV; (v) leg stubs present; (vi) posterior stigmatic pore bands bifurcated, and (vii) multilocular disc-pores absent. (Hodgson & Williams, 2016)
