Fauna Portal Image No. 14627Diagnosis
(after Prado, Baptista & Framenau, 2026): Males of A. bicornuta resemble those of A. orcina due to the ventral portion of tegular apophysis having a narrow keel; however, they differ as the tegular apophysis of A. bicornuta has the ventral portion as a concave keel and has three spiniform projections, vs. the tegular apophysis has a sinuous keel and rounded margins throughout in A. orcina.
