Females of this group (rufipes, luteicornis, libanensis) are not easy to identification. All occur in Romania. A. luteicornis is the smallest species with length 1.5-2.8 mm and most convex sides of elytra while in both congeners body length is usually 2.8-3.5 mm and sides of elytra more parallelsided.
