Porcelain crabs from Brazil (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura: Porcellanidae)

Zootaxa, 4092(2):175-194.

Twenty species of porcelain crabs are reported on the basis of material collected from Brazilian coasts. Considering the lack of systematic studies comprehending the Brazilian porcellanids, the present work presents a review of the regional species based on the current taxonomic information. New records, information about variation between specimens and a taxonomic discussion are given for porcellanid crabs from Brazil.
