Diagnosis.
Medium-sized species, BL = 10.8-12.2 mm; dorsum black, legs dark drown; head small, its width ~ 1/2 of pronotum maximum width; head with one supraorbital seta each side. Pronotum (Fig. 4B View Figure 4 ) cordate, densely punctate at base, sparsely punctate at mid-anterior region; lateral margins shallowly sinuate before posterior angles; posterior angles acute or nearly rectangular, slightly laterally protruded. Elytra elongated, widest near middle; sides of abdominal sternites densely punctate. Male mesotibiae projection (Fig. 4C View Figure 4 ) not so distinct as A. (C.) gansuensis ; the proximal denticle blunt, present near apical third of tibia, distal denticles blunt and smaller than the proximal one, present at the midpoint between the proximal one and tibial distal apex. Male genitalia with apical lamella (Fig. 4F View Figure 4 ) long and straight, subpointed and narrowed at tip; gonocoxite 2 (Fig. 4G View Figure 4 ) of ovipositor elongate, broadly expanded, ~ 1.4-1.6 × as long as wide, slightly attenuate to apex, apex narrowly rounded.
Comparison.
This species can be distinguished from the other four Chinese species belonging to this species group by having a much longer and somewhat pointed apical lamella of the median lobe. Compared with A. (C.) tumida and A. (C.) shinanensis , A. (C.) goniodera has wider and stouter gonocoxite; compared with A. (C.) gansuensis , A. (C.) goniodera , it has narrower pronotum with narrower lateral groove and shorter lateral marginal sinuation before posterior angles; compared with A. (C.) hyperborea , A. (C.) goniodera , A. (C.) goniodera has distinctly punctate abdominal sternites.
Distribution.
China (Gansu, Heilongjiang, Qinghai, Jilin, Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia*, Hebei*), North Korea, South Korea, Mongolia, Russia (Far East, east Siberia).
