(after Framenau 2006): Males of A. kochi differ from A. oz in the smaller size of the prolateral tegular lobe and the much smaller tegular apophysis of the pedipalp. Females differ in the epigyne as the spermducts are visible through the integument in A. kochi, but not in A. oz.

Fauna Portal Records
The map shows all records that have been verified as part of the Fauna Portal project and may not represent the true distribution of a species. Specifically, for described species, check the link to the Atlas of Living Australia on this page for potential wider distributions. Fauna Portal Reference specimens and Linnean types are shown in red. If you identified a specimen that exceeds the distribution of an undescribed species as illustrated here, please contact the Fauna Portal team who can assist with the lodgement of the specimen in a public institution and display on the map.
