Remarks. This new species differs from A. venustus by having the mandible with the teeth equally wide; the antenna not elongate; the clypeus quadrate, short, and with an apical median tooth; the antennal scrobe carinate; the metapostnotal-propodeal suture fused with the first metapostnotal carina; the paramere almost as long as the basiparamere and evenly wide; the basivolsella with an excavation at the inner margin; the digitus with a basal projection overlapping the basal portion of the aedeagus; and the aedeagus with the basal portion angled and wide, whereas A. venustus has the mandible with the two upper teeth wider than the others; the antenna elongate; the clypeus angulate, long, and without an apical median tooth; the antennal scrobe carinate, but weak; the metapostnotal-propodeal suture straight; the paramere longer than the basiparamere; the basivolsela with a projection at the basal portion of the inner margin; the digitus without a basal projection; and the aedeagus with the basal portion convex and slender.
