Dear RamiP,

Did you actually collect this species? This does not seem like any of the species that are mentioned as both A. cinereus and A. melanotrichus (with 6 dc bristles) have largely pale legs. I would not exclude a new species to science, hence my inquiry. I would be most interested to see the specimen of course as this subfamily is my absolute favourite!
Cheers,
