Remarks. This genus Ancylomenes is polyphyletic (see Horká et al. 2016: fig. 2; Chow et al. 2021: fig. 2). A. pedersoni is closely related to two Caribbean anemone associated species of Periclimenes, P. rathbunae and P. yucatanicus. Its final taxonomic placements await the revision of the genus Periclimenes.

Ecology. Associated with sea anemones Actinia bermudensis (McMurrich, 1889), Exaiptasia diaphana (Rapp, 1829), Bartholomea annulata, Bunodosoma granuliferum (Le Sueur, 1817), Cerianthus sp., Condylactis gigantea, Laviactis lucida, Lebrunia neglecta (Silbiger & Childress 2008; Brooker et al. 2019). Occasionally found on the black coral Plumapathes pennacea (Pallas, 1766) (Spotte 1995, as Antipathes pennacea), the jellyfish Cassiopea xamachana Bigelow, 1892 (Criales 1984), the corallimorpharians Ricordea florida Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860 and Rhodactis osculifera (Le Sueur, 1817) (as Discosoma (Rhodactis) sanctithomae (Duchassiang & Michelotti, 1860)) (Williams & Williams 2000) and the bivalve mollusk Ctenoides scaber (Born, 1778) (Spotte 1995). Known as fish cleaner (Brinkmann & Fransen 2016; De Grave & Anker 2017; Horká et al. 2018). Here recorded from algae Lobophora variegata, probably due to the retraction of a host sea anemone.

Distribution. Widely distributed in shallow waters of the tropical and subtropical western Atlantic from North Carolina to Espiritu Santo, Brazil, in depths between 1 and 40 m (De Grave & Anker 2017).
