Remarks. Alamprops carinatus can be differentiated from the similar A. flavus and A. obfuscatus by the terminal setae on the telson. In A. carinatus, the central seta is the longest, while in A. flavus and A. obfuscatus the outermost pair are longer than the central seta. Alamprops carinatus can be differentiated from the similar Lamprops fuscatus by the telson length relative to the uropod peduncles. In A. carinatus the telson is subequal to or slightly shorter than the uropod peduncles, while in L. fuscatus the telson is longer than the uropod peduncles.
