Remarks. Both sexes of A. coreana were described by Namkung (1989) from Korea. The male from Japan well agrees with that of the figure made by N a m k u n g . The figure of female by N am kung strongly resembles that of A. montana Hayashi, 1986 , from Japan, but the opening part of epigynum of coreana seems wider than that of montana . This species is new to the fauna of Japan, on the basis of the male specimen.
