Comment: several specimens pre-det. by R. Lemaitre (Besse 2013) as Pagurus cf. maclaughlinae García-Gómez, 1982 but are registered as P. maclaughlinae in Paris MNHN collection. They are near P. maclaughlinae but differ in more elongate, more spinose chelipeds (especially right), chela more slender and triangular, P4 dactyl broader. These differences are perhaps in the range of intra-specific variations P. maclaughlinae?
