Crown brownish ( Fig 1 View FIGURES 1 – 3 ). Ocellus surrounded with yellowish stripe ( Figs 1, 2 View FIGURES 1 – 3 ). Coronal suture brownish, not reaching apex of crown ( Fig 1 View FIGURES 1 – 3 ). Face dark-brown except apex of postclypeus yellowish ( Fig 3 View FIGURES 1 – 3 ). Pronotum yellowish, semitransparent posteriorly ( Fig 1 View FIGURES 1 – 3 ). Scutellum yellowish, with a median white longitudinal spot; scutlscutellar sulcus present ( Fig 1 View FIGURES 1 – 3 ).

Male ventral abdominal apodemes developed, reaching segment 5 ( Fig 5 View FIGURES 4 – 13 ). Male pygofer with anterior margin arcuate, ( Fig. 6 View FIGURES 4 – 13 ), lobe with setae along apical margin; ventral pygofer appendage extended to apex of lobe, in lateral view abruptly bent dorsad near base and straight through most of length, acuminate, with numerous small strumae near apex; dorsal bridge less than 1/3 length of pygofer, lateral lobes weakly developed ( Figs 4, 6, 7 View FIGURES 4 – 13 ). Subgenital plate extended beyond pygofer in lateral view, with 22 macrosetae, 3 rows of ca. 46 elongate fine setae, ca. 27 marginal setae, outer margin bearing 4 moderately long and stout setae forming basal group ( Fig 8 View FIGURES 4 – 13 ). Parameres elongate, apex with teeth and setae. Aedeagus sinuate in lateral view, apex expanded in ventral view, irregularly serrate laterally, membranous and branched ( Figs 10, 11 View FIGURES 4 – 13 ).

Etymology. The new species name alludes to pygofer appendage with strumae .
Remarks. The new speices is close to A. involutus Dworakowska , but differs in having the anal tube process with a thickset basal process ( Fig 12 View FIGURES 4 – 13 ) and the aedeagus sinuate in lateral view ( Fig 11 View FIGURES 4 – 13 ).
