NOTES. This species was previously known from China (Liaoning), Korea and Japan (from middle to north Honshu) ( Song et al., 1999; Kamura & Hayashi, 2009). The record of A. montana from Vladivostok is the northernmost in its entire range. This species can be easily recognized by the pattern ( Fig. 24 ), shape of the epigyne and particularly by the shape of copulatory ducts visible through integument ( Fig. 25 ).
