Gena and prosternum with long, white setae, other areas with sparse short setae. Clypeus and lower areas of frons, mesopleuron posteriorly and propodeum posterolaterally covered with dense appressed setae. Pronotal lobe with pubescence, gastral petiole ventrally without pubescence. Vertex and frons sparsely punctate, with supra-antennal projection. Free margin of clypeus emarginate medially. Postocellar diameter (ODD): postocellar distance (POD): oculocellar distance (OOD): interocular distance at anterior ocellus (IODP): interocular distance at clypeus (IODC) = 1: 2: 3.1: 9: 5. Relative length of antennal pedicel: flagellomere I: II = 1.5: 4.7: 3. Pronotal collar: length: width = 4.5: 9, sparsely punctate, with deep median furrow; transversely, densely, finely striate on anterior slope; scutum with short admedian line, sides of anterior half and posterior half transversely, densely, finely striate and punctate; scutellum longitudinally striate; metanotum coarsely, longitudinally rugose-striate; propodeal enclosure with weak median carina, surface obliquely striae coarser than on scutellum; mesopleuron and mesosternum weakly transversely rugose-striate and punctate, episternal sulcus present; metapleuron and lateral side of propodeum coarsely rugosestriate and punctate. Submarginal cell III petiolate. Claws simple, arolia present. Hindleg: relative length of tibia: tarsomeres I: II: III = 22: 11.8: 6.5: 5.

R e l a t i o n s h i p s: This new species is related to A. ganquana YANG & LI (1989) , but differs from the latter by the sparse, short setae of the back and side of the thorax, the longitudinally striae of the scutellum slender, the propodeal enclosure with a median carina, the oblique striae more longitudinal, and by the male genitalia.
