Heteropilumnus ciliatus (Stimpson, 1858)

Heteropilumnus ciliatus — Horikoshi and Takeda 1982: tab. 1; Morton and Morton 1983: 273, fig. 7.3(10).

Taxonomy: Shen (1936a: as H. cristadentatus ), Sakai (1939). Type: Presumably lost. Type locality: Shimoda (as Simoda), Japan. Distribution: East Asia: coasts of China to Shandong, Korea and Japan. Habitat: Intertidal; under rock fragments, on muddy substrates ( Dai and Yang 1991).

Heteropilumnus cristatus ( Rathbun, 1909) #

Heteropilumnus cristata — Wong et al. 2021: 36, fig. 55, pl. 11C.

Taxonomy: Rathbun (1910: as Litochira ).

Type: Holotype ñ and paratypes probably in NHMD (original text).

Type locality: Two miles south of Koh Tutu, Gulf of Thailand.

Distribution: South China Sea: so far from Gulf of Thailand and South China ( Hong Kong).

Habitat: Local female specimen collected among abandoned fish net, trawled from sandy-muddy substrates of depths 20 to 40 m.

Heteropilumnus holthuisi Ng & Tan, 1988 #

Litocheira subintegra — Gordon 1931: 528, text-fig. 25b. Heteropilumnus subinteger — Balss 1933: 42, pl. 7(32, 33); Shen

1936a: 65; Shen 1940a: 228.

Taxonomy: Balss (1933: as H. subinteger ), Ng and Tan (1988).

Type: Holotype ò and paratypes in NHM 1900.10.22.175, and paratypes in ZRC.

Type locality: Singapore.

Distribution: Eastern Indian Ocean to South China Sea: from Mergui Islands to Singapore or Malacca, to South China (Guangxi to Fujian) ( Ng and Tan 1988; Yang et al. 2008).

Habitat: Intertidal and subtidal; under rocks on muddy substrata ( Ng and Tan 1988).

Remarks: As demonstrated in Ng and Tan (1988), the name Carcinoplax subinteger , established in Lanchester (1900: p. 750) was intended to “replace” the name Carcinoplax integra Miers, 1884 , and thus based on the same type specimen. As such the name C. subinteger is not available. Carcinoplax integra s. str., a species from western Indian Ocean, is very distinct from the present West Pacific form previously called C. subinteger but referred to a new name, H. holthuisi by Ng and Tan (1988). Mier’s (1884) C. integra is now in Pseudolitochira Ward, 1942 (see Ng 1987; Maenosono 2019; Ng et al. 2021).
