摘要

Abstract

This paper reports the occurrence of a marine brachyuran crab species Eucrate alcocki Serène

in Serène et al.

1973

of the family Euryplacidae Stimpson

1871

for first time from India

based on a male specimen from Parangipettai fish landing centre in Bay of Bengal

Southeast Coast of India. Although morphologically corresponding with what is currently defined as E. alcocki

the color pattern of the carapace of the present specimen is rather different from that of the Chinese material-only the anterior fifth of the carapace is marked with scattered red spots

the rest of the surface is yellowish

with four unusually shaped red blotches which almost look like Sanskrit characters.
