Molecular data.

A 726 base pairs of COI sequence (GenBank: MF680510) was acquired from one individual of A. pariensis . No insertion or deletion in the sequence alignment.

Remarks.

Negoescu (1997) described in detail the female and manca materials. Fortunately, the male specimen were collected for the first time in the present study. The materials were found particularly from the west coast of Peninsula Malaysia. This is the first record of such species from this country.
