Etymology. The species is named sculpta for the strong sculpturing of the carapace. Remarks . The species is easily differentiated from the other species in New Zealand , Apocuma chathamensis , by the much more strongly sculptured carapace. The most similar species in the genus is A. poorei Petrescu 2004 , known from Australian waters. However, in A. sculpta the uropod peduncles are more than twice the length of pleonite 6, and the pereopods have few strong serrations. In comparison, in A. poorei the uropod peduncles are less than twice the length of pleonite 6, and the pereopods and uropods are strongly serrated on all or most of the article margins.
