Remarks.—Loman, identifying Slater’s species with A. ra- 
mipes (Béhm), places in the same synonymy A. bicornis, 
Ortmann, regarding as unimportant the differences said to 
distinguish the last-named species, but not discussing them 
in detail. Ortmann states that A. bicornis has a claw on the 
first legs and the abdomen only half as long as the proboscis, 
while A. ramipes has no claw on the first legs and the abdomen 
equal to the proboscis. In the present specimen the abdomen 
is about one-third as long as the proboscis and the other 
characters are as given by Ortmann. Béhm’s figure and 
description of A. ramipes present some inconsistencies, but 
Ortmann confirms his account of the very long abdomen and 
the clawless first legs.
