Material examined. 1 male [IOZ(E)361979], Shandong Prov.: Laoshan, Chiushui , circa 800m, 1940.VIII., Coll. B. Becquart.

Redescription. Proximal three quarters of stridulatory file on underside of male left tegmen with 51 distinct teeth gradually becoming larger centrad ( Fig. 1C ). Mirror of male right tegmen completely concealed beneath pronotum ( Fig. 2C ). Male tenth abdominal tergum with a very narrow trumpet-shaped cleft to apical half in apical margin ( Fig. 4C ). Male cercus comparatively long, robust, of equal width to an internal uncinate median tooth, then abruptly narrowed, and gently incurved in apical one-third portion with an obtuse pointed apical tooth ( Fig. 3C ). Apical margin of male subgenital plate with a very shallow wide “U”-shaped notch between styli ( Fig. 11C ).

Notes. Qingdao in Shandong Province is the type locality of the species. The type is not available. Laoshan, collecting locality of this specimen, lies in the suburb of Qingdao City. Moreover, the specimen possesses similar cerci and measurements with A. robustus in Bei-Bienko (1951). Consequently, I temporarily identified it as A. robustus .

Distribution. China (Shandong).
