Systematics: Slide-mounted adult female with: enlarged setae conical, apices rounded, marginal setae slightly larger than other dorsal setae with bare areas in mediolateral areas of posterior abdominal segments; anal lobes apparently with 4 enlarged setae (Goux, 1992). According to hand written remark of Goux, he was unable to find the holotype. According to the description and drawing, this species is considered as unrecognisable at this time. There is a typographical error in original publication. The legend of the Planche I belongs to A. puymorensis and the drawings of A. puymorensis and A. guesinus were replaced. According to original description and drawing this species is similar to A. greeni. (Kozár,, et al., 2013)
Structure: Body elongate oval, 3.0 mm long, 1.2 mm wide. (Kozár, et al., 2013)
