Habitat.
Intertidal to subtidal, 0 to approximately
10 m
deep, reef flats, seagrass beds, and reef slopes, on sandy, sand-mud, rocky, coralline, and soft bottoms.
Remarks.
Yap-Chiongco (1938)
and
Estampador (1937
,
1959
) report both
C. latens
and
C. terrae-reginae
from the Philippine waters.
Calcinus terrae-reginae
was synonymised with
C. latens
by
Grant & McCulloch (1906)
.
Calcinus latens
is apparently a species complex, with three distinct forms found in Hawai’i, the Gulf of
Oman
, and the wider Indo-West Pacific region (
Malay & Paulay, 2010
). This species complex is very abundant throughout its range, and occupies a wide variety of different habitats.
