Remarks.
This species is similar to
Alamprops krashenninikovi
,
A. longispina
, and
A. quadriplicatus
, as well as
Lamprops fasciatus
, in having ridges on the carapace.
Alamprops longispina
has the outermost pair of terminal setae on the telson very long, whereas in
A. augustinensis
the central seta is the longest. In
A. krasheninnikovi
, the terminal setae on the telson are similar in length to each other, and the first article of the antennular peduncle is equal to the second article, while in
A. augustinensis
the central and outermost pair of terminal setae on the telson are the longest, and the first article of the antennular peduncle is longer than the second. In
A. quadriplicatus
the telson is distinctly longer than the uropod peduncles, while in
A. augustinensis
the telson is shorter than the uropod peduncles.
Lamprops fasciatus
has three lateral ridges on the carapace, and one pair of lateral setae on the telson, while
A. augustinensis
has four lateral ridges on the carapace and two or more pairs of lateral setae on the telson.
