On new record of Pagurus kulkarni Sankolli, 1962 (Crustacea: Anomura: Paguridae) from Gujarat, India


Author(s): Trivedi JN, Vachhrajani KD

Abstract: In the present study the presence of hermit crab species Pagurus kulkarni Sankolli, 1962 was recorded for the first time from the coastal areas of Gujarat state, India. The species has wide spread distribution from Persian Gulf to Philippines. In India the species is reported from Maharashtra and Kerala. The species can be easily distinguished from closely related species since the dorsal surface of chelipeds is without median protuberances and has simple and sparse setae on chelipeds.
