The form of the tubercles (pointed protuberances) on the eyemound allows A. c. oconnori to be separated from both taxa.

These are thicker in A. c. chiltoni than in the other two subspecies, with A. c. longispinosa having fewer tubercles on the rear margin of the scutum and the first two free tergites than A. c.

[1] Additionally, the femur of the pedipalp lacks the proximo-dorsal (upper surface, near the body) swelling with a spinous tubercle seen in males of A. c. chiltoni and A. c. longispinosa, while the tarsus of the second leg has an additional segment.

[1] This species is found in the lower North Island of New Zealand, from Wairarapa region in the east across to the western side of the Remutaka Range.

[1] Algiidia chiltoni oconnori has not been assessed under the New Zealand Threat Classification System.
