Here, zoogeography of these species and their zoogeographical affinities within Indo-West Pacific region are discussed. In addition, present taxonomic survey off the Iranian coasts of the Persian Gulf resulted in finding 14 leucosiid crabs, of which Arcania erinacea and Pariphiculus mariannae are new records for the area.}, keywords = {Leucosiid crab,taxonomy,zoogeography,Persian Gulf,Iran}, url = {https://ijab.um.ac.ir/article_24715.html}, eprint = {https://ijab.um.ac.ir/article_24715_95e30a19997303aa873410922fa05857.pdf} }
