Measurements of the holotype are not given in the literature. According to the original description, macrosetae are not present on legs I and III, while in the specimens collected in this study macrosetae are present on those legs. Amblydromalus congeae De Leon, 1965 is very similar to A. laetus; these species could be synonyms.
