Alpheus digitalis is a species of pistol shrimp in the family Alpheidae.[1][2] The species was first discovered after a taxonomic study of a snapping shrimp from the genus Alpheus from Japan and the Gulf of Thailand, of which, it was found that two species was confounded under A.digitalis, which was originally described based on a single specimen possessing abnormal chelipeds.[3][4][5]
