  • Bidessus granularis Balfour-Browne, 1944
  • ?Liodessus oliveri Ordish, 1966
    • Authority for synonymy: Balke & Ribera, 2004: 123 ('This species is extremely similar to A. bistrigatus (see the description by Watts 1978; the description above). The only difference we could discerne is the slightly less curved median lobe in A. oliveri (Fig. 3i). We assume this species is a synonym of A. bistrigatus, but suggest studying sequence data from its type locality in relation to more sequence data from a wider range of Australian A. bistrigatus to resolve this problem')
