Material studied.
Type material. Holotype, 1♀, [ Brazil], São Paulo, Baxnery, XI.20., A. Hempel leg., #20 242 (head missing, otherwise completely on one slide: Bo 1273) (M. São Paulo) . - Paratypes, 9♀: 1♀, same data as holotype (completely on two slides: Bo 1439) (ZS Munich) . 1♀, same data as holotype (abdomen on one slide: Bo 1288) (M. Maastricht, NHMM 2021 009) . 2♀, same data as holotype (M. São Paulo) . 5♀, [ Brazil], São Paulo , Hinanga, # 6287 A (abdomen and legs of 1♀ on one slide: Bo 1272; abdomen of 1♀ on one slide: Bo 1287) (M. São Paulo) .
Diagnosis.
Female Surface bristles of T2-5 similar as in A. paucisetosa and A. multisetosa fairly in one line, distinguished from the former by the more numerous bristles on T6, and from both by the more strongly bent transversal ridge of S7 and the unique shape of tubes lst (see key).
Etymology.
The species name refers to the sine-shaped (Latin: sinuosus) transversal ridge (Latin: carina) of S7.
Description.
Size Length of body (dried): female 2.75-3.2 mm. Surface bristles of tergites 2-5 arranged in one transversal row (less regular than in A. paucisetosa ; Fig. 10C View Figure 10 ). Transversal ridges tr2-5 without distinct excurvations (Fig. 10C View Figure 10 , compare grey arrows in Fig. 11A View Figure 11 ).
Male Unknown.
Female Tergites 6,7: (Figs 10D, E View Figure 10 , 13B View Figure 13 , 14H View Figure 14 ) Median lobe of T7 rather long; transversal ridges tr6 and tr7 complete, tr6 sublaterally with a weak, but distinct bend; surface bristles very numerous on T6, only few on T7, very small, focused to central part of surface area. Subgenital plate (Figs 17A, B View Figure 17 , 18M, N View Figure 18 ) rounded-rectangular, with parallel lateral borders; lateral parts of transversal ridge (sr7-l) with a strong mesally directed curvation, lateral terminal parts with a distinct laterally directed curvation; at least in part of the cases ridge mesally ending after having reached a transversal orientation, with a fairly wide median gap, partly recurved sr7-m ends indicating the ridge to be bisinuate (course of the transveral ridge very similar as in A. aptera , but lateral parts more strongly inclined mesally, thus leaving a narrower gap). Genitalia: (Figs 21B View Figure 21 , 22K, L View Figure 22 ) Spermathecal plate sp large, pouch gcp quite large (Fig. 21B View Figure 21 ). In laterosternal shelf sclerite (Fig. 22K, L View Figure 22 ) central part (c) moderately long and posteriorly widely rounded-truncate, arms (a) moderately wide, wing parts (w) moderately wide, their base restricted to posterior half of tubes; tubes (lst) with a straight mesal border, slightly narrowed towards the anterior, anteriorly more or less transversally cut. Mesal gonangulum sclerites (gg-m) distinct, lateral ones absent (Fig. 21B View Figure 21 ).
Host species.
Unknown.
Distribution.
Brazil: Est. São Paulo (the possible localities “Baxnery” and “Hinanga” indicated on the labels could not be identified).
