Apterocyclus munroi is a species of stag beetle in the family Lucanidae. It was found on the island of Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands in 1897.[2][3]

Four specimens of Apterocyclus munroi were collected on Kauai in 1897, and the species description was published in 1908.[3][1] No specimens have been identified since 1897, and the species may now be extinct.[3]
