Description: Colour. Vertex predominantly green except for three red marks on anterior margin, which may be faded in older specimens. Frons, pronotum, and mesonotum green (Fig. 2 a). Eyes black fading to brown in older specimens. Legs green with reddish colouration at posterior section of femur and anterior section of tibia. Spines on legs black. Forewings green, hindwings smoky white. Body length. �� 8.3���9.6 mm, �� 9.1���10.9 mm Head. Vertex projecting beyond eyes about two-thirds eye length. Pronotum extending to level with anterior margin of eyes, hind margin rounded. Frons widest at frontoclypeal suture, dorsal edge approximately two-thirds width of widest point. Frontoclypeal suture distinct. Thorax. Forewings with 19���20 apical cells and one to two rows of subapical cells. Ve i n C u A 2 strongly curved. Apical spines of hind tibia in two rows, 2 nd row with 4���5 spines positioned between 7 spines of 1 st row (Fig. 3 a). Male genitalia. First segment of anal tube widening along length, bearing two small flanges at posterior margin (Figs 4 d, e). Medioventral process of pygofer square (Fig. 4 b). Parameres with ventral surface smooth (Fig. 4 b), dorsal surface twisted, lined with 1 large and 4 small spines along outer margin (Fig. 4 a). Aedeagal appendages slightly broadened at midlength, each with 1 apical spine (Figs 4 a, c). Dorsal lobe of phallobase reduced to 2 small spines (Fig. 4 a). Lateral lobes greatly reduced. Remarks: Unlike other described species of the genus, A. retortinervis lacks dark markings on the forewings. The material examined has extended the known distribution of this species east to Fraser and Stradbroke Islands (Qld), south to Sydney (NSW), and west to Gilgandra (NSW) (Fig. 1)
