Habitat. Subtidal, 2–41 m deep, on reef flats, slopes, plateaus, and caves, on coral, rubble, and mixed sand-coral substrates.

Remarks. Calcinus pulcher has a cryptic form, apparently restricted to the Western Indian Ocean, that lacks the bright red patches on the carpi of the second pereopods characteristic of the typical Western Pacific colour morph ( Malay & Paulay, 2010: Fig. 13; Poupin, 2016: Fig. 5 View Fig ). The cryptic colour morph is genetically distinct from typical C. pulcher ( Malay and Paulay, 2010) .
