As far as I know, there are two species with darker veins like this: A. liturata and A. confusanea. I can't help you further, I'm afraid. You need a very close view of the setae on tibia 2 to determine the species.

That was very helpful, James - by narrowing it down to two species and with the description by Michelsen & Baez I think this is A. confusanea:

Only one ad seta on t2, no pv setae on f3 and the t3 orange in the middle

Final confirmation very much appreciated ;)
