| INTRODUCTION The genus Linuparus White was recently reviewed by Bruce (1965) who gave an excellent account of two species, the type species L. trigonus (Von Siebold) and a previously undescribed species L. sordidus Bruce from the South China Sea. George & Main (1967) reviewed the family Palinuridae and suspected that "four geographically isolated species are probably represented within the recorded distribution of Linuparus; one in Japan (trigonus), one in South China sea (sordidus), one off Portuguese East Africa. .. and one off east Australia...". During 1970, when one of us (R.W.G.) visited the Oceanographic Research Institute at Durban, the opportunity was taken by us to assemble relevant specimens of Linuparus for comparison and review of that... |

The first author (George), when in 1958 studying specimens of the Western Australian spiny lobster which at that time was indicated by the name Panulirus longipes (A. Milne Edwards) (a species considered by many authors to be synonymous with P. japonicus), was dissatisfied with that identification and obtained material of the typical P. longipes from Zanzibar. Comparison with this material showed that the Western Australian spiny lobster represented an unnamed species, which he then described as P. cygnus. He also arrived at the conclusion that P. japonicus... |
