Type locality: Tong Fuk, Lantau, Hong Kong (neotype).

Distribution: South China Sea and East Asia: northern Vietnam, South China and Taiwan.

Habitat: Intertidal; on sheltered sandy shores or mudflats.

Remarks: The soldier crab M. brevidactylus Stimpson, 1858 in East Asia has long been in synonymy M. longicarpus Latreille, 1806 , but the latter species is now recognized as being present only in the Southern Hemisphere ( Takeda 1978). Stimpson’s (1858b 1907) Mictyris brevidactylus is based on material from Hong Kong (South China) and Ryukyus, Japan. Specimens from the Ryukyus have been recognized as distinct and described as M. guinotae Davie, Shih & Chan, 2010 ( Davie et al. 2010).
