Nomenclatural note
"Based on the protologue (Jose and Patel 1990), this species is within the circumscription of A. eugenea, also occurring in Asia (China and Pakistan) although no reference was made to that species. While no morphological analysis of diagnostic characters has been made here, there is no basis to recognize it as a distinct species or propose it as a synonym." (Vis & Necchi 2021: 103). - (12 April 2022) - M.D. Guiry
