Diagnosis. Shield slightly longer than broad. Ambulatory legs with dactyl longer than propodus and with many bristles along the ventral and dorsal faces; other segments with few bristles. Ventral face of the dactyl of second left ambulatory leg with rounded crest and series of rounded tubercles in the proximal portion and series of tufts of bristles immediately adjacent to both sides of the crest.

Distribution. Western Atlantic—Bermuda, Florida, Antilles, Venezuela, north of South America and Brazil (from Amapá to São Paulo, including Atol das Rocas, Fernando de Noronha and banks off Ceará and Rio Grande do Norte).

Remarks. Dardanus venosus is very close to D. fucosus ; for distinctive characters see remarks in D. fucosus .
