| Abstract |
The report of decapod crustaceans from Friuli-Venezia Giulia (NE Italy) has previously been limited to only two reports by Dainelli (1915), and Collins & Dieni (1995). The recent discovery of thalassinids, anomurans and brachyurans from some localities in Udine and Pordenone provinces increases the carcinologic knowledge from the Mesozoic and Cenozoic of Italy. The thalassinid specimens include Corallianassa rigoi n. sp. (superfamily Callianassoidea Dana, 1852, family Callianassidae Dana, 1852). The anomuran specimens include Calteagalathea friulana n. gen., n. sp. (superfamily Galatheoidea Samouelle, 1819, family Galatheidae Samouelle, 1819). The brachyuran specimens include: Pithonoton marginatum (v. Meyer, 1842) (superfamily Homolodromioidea Alcock, 1900, family Prosopidae v. Meyer, 1860), Graptocarcinus bellonii Collins & Dieni, 1995 (superfamily Dromioidea De Haan, 1833, family Dynomenidae Ortmann, 1892), Lophoranina marestiana (König, 1825) (superfamily Raninoidea De Haan, 1839, family Raninidae De Haan, 1839), Portunus monspeliensis (A. Milne Edwards, 1860), and Portunites rosenfeldi n. sp. (superfamily Portunoidea Rafinesque-Schmaltz, 1815, family Portunidae Rafinesque-Schmaltz, 1815), and Titanocarcinus raulinianus A. Milne Edwards, 1863 (superfamily Xanthoidea MacLeay, 1838, family Pilumnidae Samouelle, 1819). |
