It can further be distinguished from other congeners by the following set of characters: deeply forked caudal fin (vs. caudal fin emarginate to truncate in A. inermis, A. magoi, A. polystictus and A. vittatus); shorter anal fin 32-38 (vs. 39-49 in A. apiaka, A. dentatus, A. ucayalensis and A. uranophthalmus); reduced and ossified gas bladder (vs. large, non-ossified gas bladder) and epaxial musculature covering the tympanic region (vs. tympanic region translucent, not concealed by epaxial musculature) in A. pardalis; fewer gill rakers on the first branchial arch 11-18, mode 13 (vs. 18-30, mode 22 in A. inermis and A. ucayalensis); longer pectoral-fin spine 15.4-21.8% SL (vs. 10.5-14.6% SL) and longer pelvic fin 13.1-17.1% SL (vs. 9.6-13.6% SL) in A. militaris (Ref. 124585).
