- Abstract
- Maja goltziana d'Oliveira, 1888 is an oxyrhynch crab occurring in the eastern
Atlantic Ocean from Portugal to Congo and the Canary Islands, and in the
Mediterranean Sea (d'Udekem d'Acoz, 1999). It is apparently uncommon all
across its distributional range, although González Pérez (1995) describes it as a
frequent species on the Canary Islands. In the Mediterranean, it is by far the least
common of the Maja species, among which it can easily be distinguished by the
morphological characteristics of the dorsal part of the carapace and of the walking
legs (see Pastore, 1983) (fig. 1). It was first recorded from the Mediterranean off
the coast of Israel in the late 1950's (Holthuis & Gottlieb, 1958). In the following
twenty or more years it was sparsely recorded from the Levantine basin and the
Aegean Sea by only a few specimens (Ramadan & Dowidar, 1972; Koukouras,
1979; Kocatas, 1981). Later on, M. goltziana was collected in the Ionian Sea
(Pastore, 1983), the Strait of Sicily (Pipitone & Tumbiolo, 1993), and the Aegean
Sea (d'Udekem d'Acoz, 1994). In fact, d'Udekem d'Acoz (1999) was doubtful
about the presence of this species in the Adriatic Sea, based on the record of
Maja erinacea Ninni, 1924 reported by ?tev?ci´c (1990). More recently, two new
records have extended the known geographic range of M. goltziana to the western
Mediterranean, notably to the southern (Rinelli et al., 2000) and the northern
(Vignoli et al., 2004) Tyrrhenian Sea.
The present paper reports about two findings of M. goltziana in the southern
Tyrrhenian, and confirms its established presence in the western Mediterranean
Sea. (literal)
