GENUS HYAS LEACH, 1814 View in CoL
Remarks: The genus Hyas has been mentioned in only one vent-related study, a report of shallow-water subpolar North Atlantic hot vent communities at Kolbeinsey Island, Jan-Mayen Ridge, off northern Iceland ( Fricke et al., 1989: 428, table 1, as Hyas sp. ). Crabs were described by Fricke et al. as being ‘extremely rare... and probably of minor importance for the local food web’ at this site. To our knowledge, no collections were made of these crabs.
