Remarks
Referred to many times in the literature from Thailand, this is the first record of Leucothoe furina from the intertidal area of the Peninsular Malaysia. The synonymy of this circumtropical species was discussed by Rabindranath (1967)[8]. The Pulau Tioman material agrees with the earlier descriptions of Nayar (1967)[6], Imbach (1967)[7] and Rabindranath (1967)[8] with a few variations. The minute accessory flagellum, stouter palp of the mandible, and spinose uropod 1 agrees well with Imbach’s specimen. The gnathopod 2 is unlike Imbach’s illustration, however the nearly smooth palm is also observed in Nayar’s illustration.
