Panulirus stimpsoni and checklist of Panulirus lobsters in Malaysian waters: morphological and molecular insights

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 geneti...
