Family Pilumnidae Samouelle, 1819 View in CoL
Pilumnids can be distinguished easily from xanthoids by their coarse setae. Like xanthoids, they are most abundant in warm temperate and tropical areas, and generally live among rocks, corals or shells. Ng et al. (2008: 135) gave additional taxonomic references on these crabs.
