Pagurus conformis De Haan, 1849 View in CoL
Restricted synonymy.
Pagurus conformis De Haan, 1849: 204 View in CoL [type locality: Japan]; Komai , 2004: 322, figs. 1–4; McLaughlin et al., 2007: 254, 255, unnumbered figs.; 2010: 33 (list), fig. 15E.
Eupagurus megalops Stimpson, 1858: 248 View in CoL [type locality: East China Sea]; 1907: 216.
Pagurus megalops – Miyake, 1978: 84, fig. 31; 1982: 128, pl. 43, fig. 4.
Material examined. 1 male (sl 8.7 mm) ( ZRC 2014.0337 View Materials ), PANGLAO 2004, PN1, Balicasag Island , coll. local fisherman, 29 April 2004, tangle nets .
Distribution. Previously known from Japan, Taiwan, and East China Sea, at depths of 5– 190 m. Firstly recorded from the Philippines.
Remarks. The present specimen agrees well with the redescription of P. conformis by Komai (2004) except for the lack of a ventral median foramen of the carpus of the right cheliped. Komai (2004) believed that the presence of the foramen is diagnostic for P. conformis , but the present specimen shows that the character is possibly variable in this species. Similar variation in the presence or absence of the ventral foramen on the carpus of the right cheliped has been reported in P. cavicarpus (cf. McLaughlin & Forest, 1999).
