Material examined: Taiwan: 1 ovig. female (12.6 × 9.0 mm) (NCHUZOOL 16531), Erzihliao Fishing Port, Kaohsiung, coll. YH Huang, 8 Jul. 2018.
Diagnosis: Carapace subhexagonal, 1.4 times broader than long, surface densely pilose, posterior margin slightly broader than frontal ( Fig. 14A View Fig ). All anterior carapace ridges and cardiac ridges paired, mesobranchial regions with 2 pairs of ridges ( Fig. 14A View Fig ). Front with 6 lobes, median 2 lobes lower than submedian, lateral lobes smallest and tooth-like. Supraorbital margins broad with 2 notches. Anterolateral margins with 5 teeth, tooth 1 with small subsidiary basal tooth ( Fig. 14A View Fig ). Basal antennal segment granulated. Chelipeds with surface granulated; merus with 3 spines on inner margin; carpus with spine on inner margin, 3 smaller spines on outer margin; palm with 5 spines on dorsal surface, outer distal spine small or reduced to a tubercle, outer surface with 3 granulated ridges. Propodus of P5 with spines on inner margin ( Fig. 14B View Fig ).
Coloration in life: Carapace, chelipeds and P2–P5
A 3 mm
B
gray.
Distribution: Hawaii; French Polynesia; New Caledonia; Australia (western); Indonesia (Banda); Guam; Philippines; Nansha Is.; Taiwan (Erzihliao Fishing Port, Kaohsiung; Fig. 1 View Fig : no. 7); Japan (incl. Ogasawara Is.; Ryukyus); China (incl. Hainan I.); Malaysia (Malay Peninsula); Thailand; India; Maldives; Red Sea; Seychelles; Mayotte I.; Madagascar ( Sasaki 2019; this study).
Ecological notes: Specimens were caught by trawling and collected from fishing port (this study). The habitats are 30–80 meters deep, with muddy, sandy or pebbly bottoms ( Sakai 1976).
Remarks: Thalamita spinifera Borradaile, 1902 is similar to Tha. exetastica Alcock, 1899 , with Tha. spinifera distributed widely in the Indo-West Pacific and Tha. exetastica distributed in the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea ( Sasaki 2019). The female specimen from Taiwan is consistent with Tha. spinifera by the spines on the inner margin of propodus of P5 ( Fig. 14B View Fig ; Yang et al. 2012: fig. 128e, pl. 14(2)) (vs. smooth in Tha. exetastica ; Alcock and McArdle 1900: pl. 47(2); Yang et al. 2012: fig. 104e, pl. 12(4)).
