Persian Gulf. Iran ( Sepahvand & Sari 2010).
Iran. Hormozgan Province: Qeshm I. (east of Fajr Jetty).

Remark. Tirmizi (1970) originally described Callianassa (Callichirus) masoomi Tirmizi, 1970 , from the Pakistan waters of western Karachi. Sakai (1999) transferred this species to his newly erected genus Podocallichirus Sakai, 1999 . Sakai (2011) discussed the taxonomic position of this species and mentioned the morphological differences between T. masoomi and type species of the genus Podocalichirus Sakai, 1999, namely Callianassa madagassa Lenz & Richters, 1881 . He assigned T. masoomi in the new genus Tirmizicallichirus Sakai, 2011 .
