“…In agreement with the COI result, morphological characterization of the specimen from clade D confirmed that it was identical to the P. stimpsoni holotype from Hong Kong ( Holthuis, 1991 ). The presence of this species in South Korean waters has also been reported in the southern part of Jeju Island ( Kim et al, 2009 ). Morphologically, some features were remarkably similar to those of P. versicolor .…”

“…Despite the monophyletic lineages, two morphotypes of P. japonicus were found in the current study, which will be addressed as original type ( George & Holthuis, 1965 ) and Jeju type. Four of the eight P. japonicus specimens found in the current study appeared to be Jeju type based on the variations observed in its morphological features compared to the original type ( George & Holthuis, 1965 ; Kim et al, 2009 ). The Jeju type specimens had a connected pleural and transverse groove at the third abdominal somite, unlike the holotype from Japan ( George & Holthuis, 1965 ).…”

“…A previous study identified four spiny lobster species from the genus Panulirus sporadically distributed in South Korean waters: P. japonicus , P. penicilatus , P. stimpsoni , and P. versicolor . However, only P. stimpsoni has been reported in Jeju Island waters ( Kim et al, 2009 ).…”

“…Morphologically, some features were remarkably similar to those of P. versicolor . However, a feature in P. versicolor , such as a distinct continuous white transverse band along the edge of its first to sixth abdominal somite posteriors, is the key to differentiate between these two species ( Holthuis, 1991 ; Kim et al, 2009 ).…”

“…Studies on the taxonomical status of spiny lobsters have been conducted throughout the Indian, Pacific, and Atlantic Oceans. Nineteen species from the genus Panulirus have been discovered in these regions, of which seven species have been found within the East China Sea ( Holthuis, 1991 ), including P. japonicus , P. penicilatus , P. stimpsoni , and P. versicolor in South Korean waters ( Kim et al, 2009 ). This genus can be identified based on their transverse ridges with clear-cut connections and decalcified areas on the female sternum.…”

To date, 19 species of spiny lobsters from the genus Panulirus have been discovered, of which only P. japonicus, P. penicilatus, P. stimpsoni, and P. versicolor have been documented in South Korean waters. In this study, we aimed to identify and update the current list of spiny lobster species that inhabit South Korean waters based on the morphological features and the phylogenetic profile of cytochrome oxidase I (COI) of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Spiny lobsters were collected from the southern and eastern coasts of Jeju Island, South Korea. Phylogenetic analyses were performed using neighbor-joining (NJ), maximum likelihood (ML), and Bayesian inference (BI) methods. The ML tree was used to determine the spiny lobster lineages, thereby clustering the 17 specimens collected in this study into clades A, B, C, and D, which were reciprocally monophyletic with P. japonicus, P. homarus homarus, P. longipes, and P. stimpsoni, respectively. These clades were also supported by morphological examinations. Interestingly, morphological variations, including the connected pleural and transverse groove at the third abdominal somite, were observed in four specimens that were genetically confirmed as P. japonicus. This finding is novel within the P. japonicus taxonomical reports. Additionally, this study updates the documentation of spiny lobsters inhabiting South Korean waters as P. longipes and P. homarus homarus were recorded for the first time in this region.

Panulirus stimpsoni is restricted to southern China, Vietnam, and Japan but has been rarely reported in tropical Gulf of Thailand. In Malaysia, only six species were previously reported. This study (1) reports the seventh Malaysian species – a new record of P. stimpsoni with morphological and genetic data; (2) establishes a checklist of Malaysian Panulirus species. Surveys from 2021 to 2022 sampled lobsters across Malaysia by SCUBA or from fishermen. Seven species were identified and a modified key of Malaysian species was constructed. The COI gene was used for genetic identification and phylogenetic tree reconstruction with maximum likelihood (ML). The best model was GTR + I + G. The ML tree comprised Clades I and II with sequences clustering by species and strong support. Most Peninsular Malaysian lobsters were P. polyphagus while P. versicolor dominated Sabah. Information on P. stimpsoni's full fishery potential, distribution, ecology, and biology is limited. Further research is needed to ensure conservation and management as data are only available for six previously reported species. Further studies are required to discover sustainable use approaches for all Panulirus species, particularly P. stimpsoni, given limited ecological understanding.

Aceh Province is a potential area for the exploitation of Panulirus, with six species of Panulirus inhabiting coastal areas and coral ecosystems in Aceh Province including P. homarus (Linnaeus, 1758), P. longipes (A. Milne Edwards, 1868), P. ornatus (Fabricius, 1798), P. penicillatus (Olivier, 1791), P. polyphagus (Herbst, 1793), and P. versicolor (Latreille, 1804). This study aims to characterise six species of Panulirus originating from Aceh as management and conservation efforts in the future. This research was conducted from 2022‒2023 at Simeulue Island (P. homarus, P. longipes, P. penicillatus, and P. versicolor) and Aceh Jaya Regency (P. ornatus and P. polyphagus), Aceh Province, Indonesia. The collected samples were then transported to the Aquaculture Integrated Laboratory, Almuslim University, Indonesia for further analysis. The collected lobsters were of mature size (body weight and total length reaching 500 g and 18‒25 cm) with a total of 10 individuals per species. A total of 58 morphometric characters were measured, of which total length (TL) was used as the coefficient of data transformation, so only 57 characters were subjected to statistical tests. Statistical analysis of the measured morphometric characters was performed using univariate ANOVA (analysis of variance) and multivariate DFA (discriminant function analysis) methods using SPSS Ver. 22. Univariate and multivariate morphometric analysis allowed the classification of six Panulirus species based on their specific characters. A total of 51 out of 57 morphometric characters were significantly different (P < 0.05), while only the six characters were not significantly different. Panulirus ornatus is the species with the highest species distance compared to the other five Panulirus species based on DFA analysis (scatter plot). Morphometric analysis to differentiate the six Panulirus species provides more comprehensive information on key morphological identification characters.
