Two subspecies—Graphidostreptus lugubris maior Attems 1914, p. 157, figs 155–156 and Graphidostreptus lugubris villiersi Schubart 1951, p. 119–124, figs 1–5—from southern Sahara desert have been described. Archispirostreptus lugubris villiersi (Schubart 1951) is a smaller variation of the type. Furthermore, the apical metaplical process of the gonopod is shorter and the lateral metaplical process is longer, with a pointed apex, than in A. lugubris maior and the other subspecies A. lugubris lugubris. Based on gonopod morphology these subspecies represent recognizable forms.
