Head large, slightly less than width of pronotum; crown very narrow, about ½ as width as eyes; slightly carinate laterally, anterior margin distinctly produced nearly 1/3 distance beyond anterior margin of eyes; eyes large, semiglobular, occupying more than 2/3 of entire dorsal area of head; pronotum moderately large, median length slightly longer than crown; mesonotum moderately large, about as long as pronotum; forewings typical; clypeus long, narrow, lateral margins convex, excised near antennal sockets; clypellus short, about 1/3 as long as clypeus, lateral margins narrow throughout.

Male genitalia. Pygofer in lateral view triangulate, caudodoral lobe short, caudoventral process very long, narrow, membranous, small lobe below base of caudodorsal lobe ( Fig. 83); right subgenital plate long, narrow, pilose along outer lateral margin nearly entire length ( Fig. 84); right style short, shorter than aedeagus, apophysis long, narrow ( Figs. 85, 86); aedeagus in lateral view tubular, abruptly curved laterally in apical ¼, armed with toothed flange, in ventral view flange hooked basally, toothed distally ( Figs. 87, 88)); connective, small, Y-shaped, stem short ( Fig. 89); dorsal connective long, broad basally, slightly bifurcate, tapered distally in dorsal view ( Fig. 90).

Material examined. Holotype male, BRAZIL: São Paulo, São José dos Campos, 7–14 Sep. 1997, Enrico R. De Paula ( MNRJ).

Etymology. The name is descriptive for the toothed flanges on the aedeagus.

Remarks. A. ordocrista , sp. nov. is easily distinguished from all other species in the genus by the toothed flanges on the aedeagus.
