There are under this genus two distinct species distinguished mainly by the
nature of their corselets. In the first species, A. thazard the corselet is
short, abruptly constricting immediately behind the vertical from the hind
end of the first dorsal, whereas in the second species it gradually tapers and
extends to well behind the second dorsal. Bleeker described A. tapeinosoma
(Bleeker, 1854), and A. thynnoides (Bleeker,. 1855) from Indonesian waters
and these have been relegated as synonyms of A. thazard by Beaufort (1951).
Wade (1949), while working on Philippine tunas, recognised the presence
of a long corseletted form distinct from the short corseletted form and fixed
the identity of the former as A. tapeinosoma, a name used by subsequent
workers (Herre and Herald 1951;Herre, 1953; Jones, 1958). Recently Matsumoto
(1959) after a critical study of the original descriptions and examination
of the type specimens of both A. tapeinosoma and A. thynnoides found
that the former is a short corseletted form and as such is synonymous with
A. thazard, while the latter is a long corseletted form. Therefore in this
account A. tapeinosoma is relegated as a synonym of A. thazard and the long
corseletted form will be referred to as A. thynnoides. Both the species are
distributed in the Indo-Pacific but the former appears to be better known
and from a wider area than the latter.
