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).
