TYPE MATERIAL: HOLOTYPE ♂ (MACN-Ar 36532): Córdoba. Nono [31°46′ S 64°59′ W], Jan. 1998, P. Goloboff and C. Szumik, 1♂. PARA- TYPES: 1♀ (MACN-Ar 36533), Córdoba. 15 km de Mina Clavero, Camino a Villa Carlos Paz [31°36′ S 64°54′ W], Jan. 1981, P. Grosso, A. Zanetic and P. Goloboff. Same data as the holotype, 1♂ (MACN-Ar 36534). GoogleMaps
ETYMOLOGY: The specific name is a noun in apposition that refers to the type locality.
DIAGNOSIS: Females of A. clavero can be distinguished by the short and slender spermathecae (fig. 5C). Males can be distinguished by the slender and almost straight bulb (fig. 4E–G) with very subtle, almost invisible keels and apophyses; they also differ from A. reycali by the presence of prolateral spiniform bristles on trochanter and femora III (fig. 4C–D).
DESCRIPTION: Holotype male (MACN-Ar 36532, figs. 4A–H). Total length: not taken because the abdomen is very compressed and deformed. Carapace (fig. 4A): length 3.72, width 3.24. Cephalic region: length 1.92, width 2.28; clypeus short, 10 bristles between each PME-PLE dyad; one larger medial bristle on both sides of the OQ. Fovea: length 0.66, width 1.44.
