FAMILY PARAPAGURIDAE SMITH, 1882

Remarks: Chevaldonné & Olu (1996: 287) mentioned the possibility of parapagurid hermit crabs at two locations: cold seeps of the Barbados Accretionary Prism (BAP) (probably the genus Parapagurus ) and a cold seep of Monterey Bay (not identified). The latter record was listed by Barry et al. (1996) as Paguridae , rather than Parapaguridae . The animals were apparently seen but not collected. These observations constituted the only known records of hermit crabs associated with hydrothermal vents until Lemaitre (2004) described a new species of the genus Paragiopagurus from the Tashi fishing grounds off northeastern Taiwan (see below).
