It has been shown by Schaefer (1941 Bulletin mensuel de la Société linnéenne de Lyon, 10(5) : 75) that the name A. cisti has the priority over the name A. elegans. The publication date of A. cisti is the 6th August 1863 and that of A. elegans the 5th of October 1863. We then chose to keep A. cisti as the valid name for this species.
