Decapoda - Brachyura - Oziidae - Ozius

Ozius truncatus H. Milne Edwards, 1834



Environnement : Marine - Substrat/Association : Hard bottom (rock and rubbles)

Vertical range : Intertidal - Min-Max observed: 0-5 m

Central Pacific data (Wallis & Futuna, Polynesia, Clipperton, Easter Island)
Ozius lobatus Heller, 1865: 21, pl. 2, fig. 4 (Tahiti) fide Chilton & Bennett (1929: 750). - Poupin, 1996a: 65, 77 (Checklist). - Remark: Chilton & Bennett consider, with doubt, that Heller's species is the same as Ozius truncatus. Moreover, they only mention "Australia, Kermadecs" in the distribution of O. lobatus . It is thus possible, as often seen in Heller's work, that this locality was mentioned by error.
