Biology:
Wood, 1982: Specimens were taken at ground level from stems 3-5 cm in diameter and from tree branches of similar diameter. The main adult gallery consists of a radial entrance tunnel and a transverse biramous gallery that follows a growth ring, in both directions, thus forming an almost complete ring around the stem about 1 cm below the surface of the wood. Rabaglia et al. 2006: In North America, this species is similar to A. tachygraphus, but it can be distinguished from that species by the smaller size and the coarse, deep punctures on the elytral disc.
