Male known but male genitalia unknown. Described from a single male specimen ( Dessart 1978: 277‒280). In a second publication ( Dessart 1996: 54‒58), a detailed diagnosis including female characters was published, but the male genitalia remained undescribed. For similarities and differences between A. incredibilis and A. rafikii sp. nov., see remarks under A. rafikii .
