Figs 11–12
Diagnosis
This new species is similar to
A. hainanensis
, but differs from the latter by: vertex pentagonal (triangular in
A. hainanensis
); disc of vertex flat (evenly elevated in
A. hainanensis
); mesonotum without carina (tricarinate in
A. hainanensis
); dorsal lobe of periandrium short (long in
A. hainanensis
).
Etymology
The specific name is a Latin feminine adjective ‘
ungulata
’, which means a periandrium with one pair of forked processes at the apex.
