Outer face of palm, dactyl, and fixed finger convex; bearing irregular rows of corneous-tipped conical spines, with sparse short and long setae. Dactyl and fixed finger each terminating in strong corneous claw, cutting edges each with 3 large and 4 small (dactyl) or 2 large and 4 small (fixed finger) molar-like calcareous teeth. Upper margin and outer face of dactyl with row of corneous-tipped spines, with rows of tufts of long and short setae. Palm and fixed finger with rows of corneous-tipped spines accompanied by tufts of sparse setae; lower margin of palm with corneous-tipped spines, smaller spines proximally. Inner face of palm, dactyl, and fixed finger slightly convex with irregular rows of tufts of setae. Carpus with upper margin bearing 4 corneous-tipped spines; outer face slightly convex with irregular rows of corneous-tipped spines, distal outer face with transverse rows of small corneous-tipped spines; inner face with scattered tufts of setae particularly on the inner distal margin. Merus with row of spines on ventral margin; entire lateral face with tufts of long setae. Ischium with 3 teeth on ventromesial margin. Right cheliped more slender than left, armament similar to left. Second pereopods and right third pereopod generally similar, but setation and armament slightly different between second pair and right third; second pair more slender than right third; of second pair, left slightly shorter than right. Dactyls all 1.6–1.7 length of propodi; each terminating in strong corneous claw; subcylindrical, with rows of setae on dorsal and ventral margins, and on median of lateral and mesial faces; dorsal margins each with row of spines; ventral margins each with 7 small corneous spines.

Chelipeds reddish purple with white tubercles, bright red or orange-and-blue patch on carpus; setae reddish purple with white tips. Pereopods 2 and 3 reddish purple; large bright red patch on carpus; setae reddish purple with white tips. Habitat. Intertidal to subtidal, 0 to approximately 20 m deep, reef flats, seagrass beds, reef slopes, on coralline, sandy, and mud-sand substrates. Often collected from the same spot as D. lagopodes . Remarks. The species D. sanguinolentus ( Quoy & Gaimard, 1824 ) refers to the “red knee” form previously synonymised with D. lagopodes . The latter name is now restricted to the “blue knee” form. Dardanus sanguinolentus is distinguished morphologically from D. lagopodes by the presence of a deep sulcus on the upper half of the lateral face of the dactyl and propodus of LP3. The two species are also genetically distinct ( Fig. 9 ). See further detailed remarks under D. lagopodes . The geographic range of D. sanguinolentus broadly overlaps with that of D. lagopodes . While colouration is not always reported in checklists, D. sanguinolentus is known with certainty from the Red Sea, Réunion, Seychelles , Europa Island, Juan de Nova Island, Mayotte, Papua New Guinea , Indonesia , Vietnam , Philippines , Taiwan , Okinawa, Guam , Australia , New Caledonia , Fiji , and Society. This is the first time that D. sanguinolentus is formally reported from the Philippines as the species reported by Cassidy (2005) was under the name of D. lagopodes .
