Remarks. This new species differs from A. albistigmus by having the clypeus rounded and very short with the median clypeal carina hardly distinct; the antennal scrobe carinate, but weak; the frons with strong and sparse foveae; the ocelli small; the posterior margin without a posterior pronotal sulcus; the notaulus narrow; the metapostnotum with longitudinal ridges; the metapostnotal-propodeal suture fused with the first metapostnotal carina; the mesopleuron with the lower fovea closed and not divided, whereas A. albistigmus has the clypeus angulate and short, and with the median clypeal carina distinct; the antennal scrobe ecarinate; the frons coriaceous ; the ocelli very small; the posterior margin with a posterior pronotal sulcus; the notaulus very narrow; the metapostnotum without longitudinal ridges; the metapostnotal-propodeal suture straight; and the mesopleuron with the lower fovea closed and divided.
