Distribution.

Sri Lanka (type locality); Pulau Besar, Malaysia; Pulau Tinggi, Malaysia; Pulau Seri Buat, Malaysia.

Molecular data.

A 712 base pairs of COI sequence (GenBank: MF680509) was acquired from one indi vidual of A. stocki . No insertion or deletion in the sequence alignment.

Remarks.

The Malaysian A. stocki differs slightly from the original material by its weakly serrated inner margin of uropodal endopod and acute distal margin of uropodal exopod in female.
