Material. Holotype — male, Mexico, Tamaulipas State, Gomez Farias, Los Cedros, 340 m, 08–11.2002, S. Trjapitsyn ( ZIN). Patatypes : 2 males, 5 females, same data as for holotype ( ZIN); 1 female, same data but 1– 13.11.2002 ( ZIN); 1 male, same state, Gomez Farias, Alta Cima, 900 m, 2– 9.11.2000, D. Kasparyan ( ZIN); 2 females, same state, Gomez Farias, forest, 28.11– 20.12.1998, D. Kasparyan ( ZIN).

Description. Male (holotype). Colouration and structure of body similar to those of A. (U.) oaxaca but with following differences: most part of epicranium black; short proximal parts of antennae dark brown; lateral lobes of pronotum blackish; hind basitarsus with 7–9 outer and seven inner dorsal spines; tegmina reaching posterior part of fourth abdominal tergite, with two oblique veins which somewhat shorter and more transverse (slightly less S-shaped), with mirror distinctly smaller (but clearly larger than in A. parvispeculum ) and without dividing veins ( Figs 61 View Figs 53–64 , 107 View Figs 100–119 ), and with lateral field having 8–9 longitudinally parallel veins but lacking crossveins; genital plate with distinct almost angular posteromedian notch; genitalia with posteroventral notch on each lateral side of epiphallus (between its ventroapical and ventrosubapical angular porojections) clearly longer than in all other congeners having known male genitalia, with anteromedian epiphalluc lobe slightly narrower and longer than in previous congeners described here, with distal parts of ectoparameres much longer as well as completely sclerotized and having obliquely truncate but almost rounded apices, and with apical part of rachis rounded in ventral view and membranous along lateral edges (its sclerotized part barely curved upwards and narrow in profile; Figs 25–27 View Figs 13–52 , 71–73 View Figs 65–76 ).

Variations. Sometimes pronotal disc also blackish, spines on legs insignificantly varied in number, and tegminal mirror with 1–2 dividing veins.

Female. General appearance as in males, but tegmina reaching posterior part of second or anterior part of third abdominal tergites and with distal part widely rounded, tegminal dorsal field brown to dark brown as well as with 7–8 longitudinal veins and sparse crossveins ( Fig. 62 View Figs 53–64 ), tegminal lateral field light brown to brown with light longitudinal stripe along dorsal edge (this field with 7–8 longitudinal parallel veins and without crossveins); genital plate and ovipositor very similar to those of female of A. oaxaca , but ovipositor clearly shorter than hind femur.

Length in mm. Body: male 12–15.5, female 10–14.5; pronotum: male 2.8–3, female 2.5–3; tegmina: male 5–5.5, female 3–3.7; hind femora: male 9–10, female 8.3–9.5; ovipositor 6–7.5.

Comparison. The new species is clearly distinguished from all the congeners with known male genitalia by the characteristic epiphallus having psteroventral notches significantly longer, distal portions of ectoparameres also longer and completely sclerotized as well as with apical parts obliquely truncate but almost rounded. From A. (U.) toltecus , it differs in the male tegminal mirror somewhat less transverse and almost not oblique (compare Figs 107 and 108 View Figs 100–119 ); and from A. (U.) cubensis , in the ovipositor clearly shorter (in A. cubensis , hind femur barely shorter than ovipositor).
