Genus Portunus Weber, 1795 View in CoL View at ENA

Type species. Cancer pelagicus Linnaeus, 1758 [Type locality: Unknown]

Remarks. The genus Portunus has been recognized as polyphyletic and accordingly a number of genera have been newly established or resurrected ( Mantelatto et al. 2007; 2009; 2018; Spiridonov et al. 2014; Evans 2018; and references therein).
