Editor's comment Acc. to Nomenclator Zoologicus, Koehler (1911) is the original reference, but in it the name Astrochlamys is only briefly mentioned without a single character to delimit it. The real description with type species is in Koehler (1912). [details]

Morphology This species is sexually dimorphic with a smaller male. [details]
