Portunus is a genus of crab which includes several important species for fisheries, such as the blue swimming crab, Portunus pelagicus and the Gazami crab, P. trituberculatus.[2] Other species, such as the three-spotted crab (P. sanguinolentus) are caught as bycatch.[3]
The genus Portunus contains more than 90 extant species and over 40 further species known only from fossils.[4]
Fossils of crabs within this genus can be found in sediment of Europe, the United States, Mexico, Venezuela, Brazil and Australia from Paleogene to recent (age range: 48.6 to 0.0 million years ago).[5]
The extant species are as follows:[6]
