The alien brachyuran Atergatis roseus (Decapoda: Xanthidae) in Rhodes Island (Greece)

Marine Biodiversity Records, 3.

The first finding of the alien crab Atergatis roseus (Xanthidae) in Rhodes Island (Hellenic south-eastern Aegean Sea) is documented, increasing to eleven the number of alien brachyurans present in the area, nine of them having Indo-Pacific origin. Due to its coloration, not in accordance with the literature, the specimen is described in detail.
