“…Erugosquilla massavensis is the only species of Erugosquilla found in the Mediterranean Sea and is currently established as a minor fishery resource in Sicily, Italy causing a competitive displacement of native Mediterranean spot-tail mantis shrimp, Squilla mantis (Gianguzza et al, 2019). It became one of the most edible marine crustaceans in the Mediterranean countries and represents a rich source of protein (Sallam, 2000) as well as chitin and chitosan (Abouzeed et al, 2015;Abo-Hashesh et al, 2017).…”

“…Charybdis natator is a portunid edible crab that is common in the Indo-Pacific, Indian Ocean, East Africa and the Red Sea (Dai and Yang, 1991;Webber, 2001). Although this species is unpopular and hardly consumed by locals, its shell can be used for chitin and chitosan production (Kanagaraj, 2007;Abo-Hashesh et al, 2017). In Egypt, studies regarding this species are scarce; Gaballa (2009, 2010) studied some aspects of its biology as well as assessing its edibility.…”

Pacific, Indian Ocean, East Africa and the Red Sea. The present study aimed to confirm the molecular identification of C. natator from the Red Sea using the DNA barcoding gene Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit I (COI). The molecular analysis was performed using genomic isolation from C. natator tissues followed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the COI gene and sequencing. Data analysis was carried out using the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) and phylogenetic analysis conducted using the MEGA 6 program. The molecular identification of C. natator was confirmed and agreed with the morphological description. The phylogenetic analysis of genus Charybdis revealed that C. variegata (KJ168053 and KX018513) should be redefined as C. natator. The study supports promoting Goniosupradens to the generic level and negates its old morphological classification as a subgenus. It also suggests the re-evaluation of C. acuta taxonomical classification and emphasizes the significance of performing further molecular studies on other Charybdis species in order to resolve the mis-identifications and controversies.
