Wing pale brown, slightly paler spots on crossveins and 2 on vein R 4+5. Abdomen with tergites and sternites dark brown and heavily sclerotized in both sexes, covered with microtomentum. Male postabdomen: Sternite 5 broad, posterior margin with a medial projection bearing a pair of finger-like projections, anterior apodeme about as long and 0.4X width of external portion (Fig. 36). Surstylus narrow, distal portion parallel-sided. Pregonite distinct, fairly large. Postgonite with lobes well-separated, anterior lobe broad, rounded, posterior lobe long, pointed. Basiphallus with short, narrow epiphallus, broad bilobed preepiphallus. Ejaculatory apodeme relatively large. Distiphallus with a short smooth dorsal tube (Fig. 33). Female postabdomen: Tergites 6–7 and sternite 6–7 moderately sclerotized, slightly wider than long, entirely covered with microtomentum, tergite 7 shiny with anterior margin doubly emarginated, microtomentum along posterior margin, sternites with anterior margin rounded. Tergites with 3 posterior strips, sternites with 2 posterior strips. Tergite 8 slightly narrower posteriorly, anterior margin deeply emarginated, posterior third covered with microtomentum. Epiproct with narrow anterior arms, shiny, with 1 pair of setae. Cerci narrow. Sclerites of sternite 8 pointed anteriorly, sculptured apically, distal quarter covered with microtomentum. Hypoproct semicircular, heavily sclerotized. Spermathecae round, with basal invagination, sclerotized duct about 2X length of spermathecae. Type material. Holotype ♂: CHILE: Maule: Altos del Lircay Natl. Res., ~ 3000 m, streamside pans, 29 Nov 2006, S.A. Marshall, debu00283947 (MNNC). Paratypes: same data as holotype (5 ♂, 8 ♀, DEBU); as above but no collection method (1 ♂, DEBU); Aisén: Cerro Castillo Res. Nac., 40 km SW of Balmaceda, 1100 m, dry open beech forest, carrion trap, 2–27 Jan 1985, S. & J. Peck (1 ♂, DEBU); Valparaíso: La Campana Natl. Pk., hygrophilous forest, leaf litter Berlese, 2 Dec 1984, S. & J. Peck (1 ♀, DEBU). ARGENTINA: Neuquén: Lolog, 7 km N San Martín de Los Andes, 900 m, nr. muddy bank of pond, pan traps, 23–30 Nov 1989, S.A. Marshall (1 ♂, DEBU); as above but 1000 m, 20 Nov 1989, (1 ♂, DEBU); Lolog, 7 km N San Martín de Los Andes, Gentili Cabin, pans & FIT along streambed, 18–21 Nov 1989, S.A. Marshall (1 ♂, DEBU); as above but forest and meadow, pooled pan & FIT traps (1 ♂, DEBU); Lolog, 7km N San Martín de Los Andes, Gentili property, 900 m, nr. pond, FIT, 23 Nov–1 Dec 1989, S.A. Marshall (1 ♀, DEBU). Comments. The species name is from the Greek di (two) + dactylos (finger), referring to the paired finger-like projections of the male sternite 5. This species is quite similar to A. simplicimanus, with which it co-occurs at some sites; this species can be separated by the uniformly microtomentose scutellum and hind femur.
