Appears to be closely related to A. egertoni. Individuals of this species present in N Thailand and N & C Laos (like yunnanensis but greyer above, with buffy rufous restricted to forehead) evidently represent an undescribed race. Three subspecies recognized.
Subspecies and Distribution:
- radcliffei Harington, 1910 - EC & E Myanmar.
- ramsayi (Walden, 1875) - SE Myanmar and NW Thailand.
- yunnanensis Bangs & Phillips, 1914 - S China (SE Yunnan, SW Guizhou, W Guangxi) and N Vietnam (Tonkin).
