Catalogue of Australia. Vol. 19.3B. CSIRO Publishing, Melbourne. 641 pp.
Together these volumes provide a wealth of taxonomic and biological
information on the Australian malacostracan Crustacea other than members of
the superorders Peracarida and Syncarida.
Volume 19.3A covers the commercially important shrimps, prawns, lobsters and
yabbies, listing over 1200 species known from Australian waters (including
Australian Territorial waters). Volume 19.3B details more than 1200 species of
Australian crabs (Brachyura) and related groups such as hermit crabs,
porcelain crabs, squat lobsters, mole crabs and their ilk (Anomura).
Each species is cited by name, and original references are given to all
species known from Australian waters. The volumes outline distribution of
species both inside and outside of Australian waters and hence are widely
applicable to nations bordering the Indian and Pacific oceans.
