Type material.
2♂. Holotype ♂: Indonesia: East Java: Mt. Argopuro, 31.VII.1995 [TKPM]. Paratype: Indonesia: East Java: Mt. Argopuro, 31.VII.1995 [1♂ TKPM].
Distribution.
Indonesia: East Java.
Etymology.
The specific name Arkaditilla gibba is a Latin noun meaning gibbosity. It refers to the strongly elevated clypeus of this new species.
Remarks.
This species and A. nallinia are recognized in Arkaditilla by having the mandible with sharp subapical and large inner subbasal teeth, the mandible ventral margin deeply excised with large basal tooth, the scape ventral carinae divergent apically, F1 strongly depressed, the cuspis widened posteriorly, the digitus posteriorly expanded, the paracuspis tuberculate, and the penis valve weakly expanded ventrally, but the former differs from the latter by having the clypeus strongly elevated even ventrally (clypeus elevated dorsally in A. nallinia ), and the cuspis widened near apex (cuspis widened on posterior 1/3 in A. nallinia ).
