Tiny and brachypterous. Active at day in moist habitats with low vegetation. The male produces at night an ultrasound calling song (30-50 kHz) and has shorter tegmina than the similar A. brasilienis (more or less equal to pronotum length). The female can be distinguished from A. brasiliensis by the short ovipositor. Similar to A. arreguii. Body length 13-15 mm.
