Systematics: This species appears to be especially close to Andaspis mari Ferris, 1952, but differs 1) in having fewer gland spines on abdominal segments I-IV and in having fewer dorsal ducts on pygidium: 2) a deep serrate located on the outer margin of the median lobe which is divided into two nearly equal partes. Andaspis mari, however, has more numerous glad spines on abdominal segments I-IV, more numerous dorsal ducts on the pygidium: and 2) the outer margin of the median lobe has no deep serrate.
