Body-length =0.9 0 0 mm., max. width=0.0 2 5 mm., o e s o p h a g u s=0.1 4 7 ram., tail ~ 0-118 mm.,:α =36.0, β = 6.12, y =7.63, V= 69.56 per cent.

This species, o f which o n l y t wo females were found, seems in its general shape and organization t o b e v e r y similar to A. filiformis , from which it differs, however, b y the more slender b o d y.
