Head as wide as width of anterior margin of pronotum; frontal rostrum rather obvious and about 1.4 times as wide as scapus; eyes large and protruding forwards; 3rd-5th joints of maxillary palpi distinctly elongate, 5th joint straight at apex. Pronotum transverse, strongly widened posteriorly, about 1.7 times as long as width of posterior margin, anterior and posterior margins straight. Tegmina nearly extending to apex of abdomen, present with one oblique vein, mirror slightly elongate, about 1.2 times as long as wide; wings absent. Fore tibia with a large and oblong external tympanum, about 2.5 times as long as wide; internal tympanum absent. Hind tibia with two internal apical spurs longer outer ones.
Supra-anal plate narrowed posteriorly, posterior margin narrow and round; dorsal area with a transverse impression in centre. Subgenital plate slightly transverse, slightly narrowed posteriorly, posterior margin almost straight with a small protuberance in middle. Genitalia (Figs 16–18): lateral lobe of epiphallus bent downwards apically in lateral view, slightly shorter than medial lobes, slightly narrowed apically in dorsal view, with upper margin serrated along the whole length; endophallus apodeme short.

Diagnosis. This new species is related to A. biserratus sp. nov., but can be distinguished by lateral lobe of epiphallus bent downwards apically in lateral view, with upper margin serrated along the whole length.
Etymology. This new specific name is derived from Latin longus (long) + serratus (serrate), a reference to lateral lobes of epiphallus with upper margin serrated along the whole length.
