Calappa sp. ( Fig. 2)
Material: One poorly preserved left chela in lateral view ( MPOM 797).
Description: Subtriangular wide flat palm narrowing posteriorly with preserved fixed finger; stout wide and triangular fixed finger, upward-directed tip; occlusal margin with at least seven triangular, wide, and short teeth similar in size.
Discussion. Two characters of the chela, such the subtriangular shape, flattened and wide anteriorly and the short, stout, and triangular fixed finger, with upward-directed tip and occlusal triangular teeth margin allow us to ascribe the studied specimen to Calappa Weber, 1759 without specific assignment due to its incompleteness.
