Diagnosis

This species resembles A. cruciata Deng & Che sp. nov., but can be distinguished from it by the following characters: 1) left phallomere with filamentary structure unthickened in the former, strongly thickened in the latter; 2) left paraproct with large, round and flat extension, latter without.

Etymology

The specific name is derived from the Latin word ‘ furcatus ’ and refers to the shape of the left paraproct plate looking like a fork.
