There are more that produce foliar bulbils:
A. yuloensis, A. hottae, A. rugosus, A. hirsutus, A. ochroleucus, A.
pingbianensis, A. coaetaneus etc.
If you monitor this group regularly you'll find that in the "sales" of
surplus material of the Leiden collection (late in autumn), there's usually
some variabilis.
