Dardanus View in CoL Paul’son, 1875
Remarks. The genus Dardanus is characterised by the obsolete or very short rostrum, relatively stout ocular peduncles, frequently with large corneas and ocular acicles, usually unequal chelipeds with the left much larger than the right (but subequal in a few species), and asymmetrical telson. Forty-six valid species of Dardanus are presently recognised ( McLaughlin et al., 2010; Rahayu, 2010; Malay et al., 2018), living in intertidal and subtidal areas in the world oceans but mostly found in the Indo-West Pacific. Four species were previously reported from Singapore ( Rahayu, 1996), and one species [ D. lagopodes ( Forskål, 1775) ] is here added to the fauna of Singapore.
