Diagnosis
Diameter 1.55–1.91 mm, 51–53 (55?) podous rings. Shares a short (as broad as long, or slightly longer) gonopodal palette with A. claudiahempae , A. fasciatus , A. stereosathe , A. submajor and A. udzungwensis . Differs from these species, except A. claudiahempae , by the combination of fully developed telopodites on the first pair of male legs, the gonopodal telomere describing a ca 270° curve, curving almost in one plane only, by lacking a spinose lid-like flap on the basal telomeral lamella, and by having a distinct meso-basal lobe of the gonopod palette. Very similar to, and perhaps not distinct from A. claudiahempae , differs by being mostly larger (male diameter> 1.5 mm) and by having the prefemoral processes of the first pair of male legs stouter, subtriangular.
Material studied (total: 1 ♂)
TANZANIA • 1 ♂; Zanzibar, the sultan’s palace; 16 Jun. 1979; M. Stoltze leg.; NHMD 621641 .
Descriptive notes
First pair of male legs ( Fig. 3 View Fig A–C) each with a single, relatively stout, triangular prefemoral process; prefemoral processes stouter than those of the otherwise very similar A. claudiahempae ; setae of telopodite distal to prefemur similar in length to those of normal walking legs.
See remarks under A. claudiahempae .
Distribution
Recorded from Zanzibar (type locality), Pwani Region, Bagamoyo Distr., Vula Mountain, Pongwe ( VandenSpiegel & Pierrard, 2009, as Prionopetalum fasciatum ) and from Morogoro Region, Kilosa District, Rubeho Mts, 900 m a.s.l. ( Enghoff & Frederiksen 2015, as A. aff. claudiahempae ).
