Dardanus crassimanus (H. M.-Edw.) Pagurus crassimanus H. Milne-Edwards, 1836, Ann. Sc. Nat., (2), Zool., 6, p. 277; 1837, Hist. nat. Crust., 2, p. 227; 1848, Ann. Sc. Nat., (3), Zool., 10, p. 62.\nPagurus setifer de Haan, 1849, Fauna Japonica, Crust., p. 209.\nPagurus sculptipes Stimpson, 1858, Proc. Ac. Phil., p. 246; Smiths. Misc.

Jahrb., Syst, 6, p. 287; 1897, Zool.\nJahrb., Syst., 10, p. 275.\nPagurus crassimanus H. M.-Edw., Alcock, 1905, Cat. Ind. Dec. Crust., 2, Anomura, p. 162 ("Doubtful species of Clibanarius").\nPagurus pavimentatus Hilgendorf, Lenz, 1910, Voeltzkow\'s Reise in Ostafrika in den Jahren 1903\xe2\x80\x941905, 2, p. 563.\nPagurus sculptipes Stimpson, Balss, 1914, Abh. Bayer. Akad., Math. Phys, Klasse, Suppl. 2, p. 48.\nIn 1936 I had the opportunity to examine the type specimen of Pagurus crassimanus H. M.-Edw. in the Mus\xc3\xa9um National d\'Histoire Naturelle in Paris. I was able to identify it as a true Dardanus, there being no paired appendages present on the anterior abdominal segments of either sex, the left cheliped being larger than the right, fingertips corneous, blackened and somewhat spooned.\nIt quite corresponds with our dry material of Dardanus setifer (de Haan) and with Stimpson\'s description of Pagurus sculptipes. Lenz (1910) has already pointed out the differences between Pagurus setifer M.-Edw.,
