Pachycheles tomentosus Henderson, 1893 View in CoL
Persian Gulf. UAE ( Titgen 1982), Iran (present study).
Iran. Hormozgan Province: Qeshm I. (Zeytun Park Beach).
General distribution. Northwestern Indian Ocean: Somalia, southern Oman (Dhofar), Persian Gulf, Gulf of Oman, Pakistan.
Habitat. Rocky/cobble intertidal.
Remarks. The present record is the second record of the species from the Persian Gulf. Titgen (1982) recorded one single female of this species from the Arabian coast at Dubai. One of us (R.N.) examined his specimen and his identification could be convincingly supported. During the present study, this species was collected from Djod village at the Iranian coast of the Gulf of Oman, where was so far no record of the species.
