Dyspanopeus

Wikipedia Abstract

Dyspanopeus is a genus of crabs in the family Xanthoidea, comprising two species: \n* Dyspanopeus sayi (Smith, 1869) \n* Dyspanopeus texanus (Stimpson, 1859) Both species were formerly included in the genus Panopeus, but were separated off into a segregate genus in 1986, based on the form of their pleopods, which differ markedly from those in Panopeus and other genera.
