Type specimen The species is described from a single specimen. Authors: "The holotype of A. undulata n. sp., has a damaged rim of the cephalic veil with numerous fine cirri on anterior-left margin which almost certainly represent regenerating cirri. [...] Amphictene undulata n. sp. is very similar to A. uniloba Hutchings & Peart, 2002, as they both have one enlarged medial tooth on each uncinus and almost rounded lobes on the opercular margin, but [A. undulata] can be distinguished from A. uniloba which has more longitudinal rows (3–4 rows) of major uncinial teeth, triangular lobes on opercular margin and distinctly curved scaphal hooks."
