New observation of two species, Thalamita admete and Thalamita prymna (Decapoda: Portunidae), from Chabahar Bay (Gulf of Oman)

Marine Biodiversity Records, 2.

Specimens of the swimming crabs, Thalamita admete and Thalamita prymna, were collected on intertidal zones of Chabahar Bay (Gulf of Oman) in 2007. A literature review on the distribution of these two species revealed that this is the first report of T. admete from the Gulf of Oman and T. prymna from the Iranian coasts of the Gulf of Oman. A note on the morphological features of these specimens is given in this paper.
