Remarks. – Chace & Bruce (1993: 32) commented that “... two males from the Zamboanga River in which the major second cheliped is intact have the palm less broad than it is in typical specimens of the species, much as in M. placidum, suggesting the possibility that M. lepidactyloides and M. placidum may eventually prove to be indistinguishable.” Our specimens, however, are all having a much broad and more inflated palm than that of M. placidum. M. lepidactyloides has previously been reported from Luzon (Cowles, 1914) and Mindanao (Chace & Bruce, 1993), Philippines.
Distribution. – Indonesia, Philippines and Taiwan.
