BME: 1/2 paralectotype adff. Comment . No material of this species has been seen during this study. Based on Lambdin and Kosztarab’s (1977) description and illustration, the adult female of A. corokiae is characterised by the following combination of character-states: (i) dorsum with two sizes of 8-shaped pores; (ii) large 8-shaped pores sparse medially on cephalothorax, around margins and on either side of stigmatic pore bands; (iii) presence of 8-shaped pores within apices of stigmatic pore bands unknown; (iv) large 8-shaped pores present in a band along margins of posterior abdominal segments; (v) cribriform plates present in submedial groups of 4–7 plates, some occasionally fused, on each side of segment IV; (vi) leg stubs absent; (vii) posterior stigmatic bands bifurcated; (viii) multilocular discpores in sparse bands across all abdominal segments and submarginally on metathorax, and (ix) small pores, presumably quinquelocular disc-pores, present in a submarginal band between each antenna and posterior spiracles. The adult female of A. corokiae falls within Group D in the key to species of Antecerococcus and keys out close to A. parahybensis from Brazil .
