BASTIDA-IZAGUIRRE, Dafne et al. New records of hermit crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda: Paguroidea) from Chamela Bay Islands Sanctuary, Jalisco, Mexico: with comments about the use of empty shells as habitat. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2013, vol.84, n.3, pp.782-791. ISSN 2007-8706. https://doi.org/10.7550/rmb.32505.
Twelve species of hermit crabs were identified from material recollected in Chamela Bay, Jalisco. The family Diogenidae was the best represented with 7 species. Nine species represent new records for Chamela Bay and 2 species of the genus Paguristes were found to be undescribed. We found an association of hermit crabs with shells used as home in 29 gastropods; the commonest shells used were Cantharus sanguinolentus (Duclos, 1833) and Mancinella speciosa (Valenciennes, 1832).
