M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: Israel: 1, Hermon, 33°18'N, 35°47'E, 1900 m, 20.IV.2005, leg. Assmann (cFel).

C o m m e n t: The above female probably represents an undescribed species. In external characters it is similar to A. platynotus and A. affimbriatus , but differs by distinctly paler coloration (head reddish-brown; pronotum reddish; elytra with the humeral angles and the posterior margins broadly yellowish-red).
