REMARKS
This crab, from the Early Pleistocene of Poggi Gialli (
Tuscany
), with an oval, pear-shaped carapace and indistinct regions, has been tentatively ascribed to the Mediterranean
Ethusa mascarone
, the
type
species of
Ethusa
.
An incomplete carapace from the Lower Pleistocene of
Tuscany
(
Italy
) is similarly ascribed by Pasini
et al.
(2022: 149, fig. 3F).
