Remarks. The species is fairly similar to Amynthas brevicapitatus (Thai, 1984) in having two pairs of spermathecal pores in intersegments 7 / 8 / 9, more or less same number of pre- and post-clitellar setae, prostatic duct S-shaped. However, it can be recognised by smaller body, prolobous prostomium, the absence of genital markings in spermathecal and male regions, spermathecal ampulla ellipsoid-shaped, and diverticula very short. The species was found inside decaying woods (Thai & Le 1993).
