CONT

Les Thalassinidea, cosmopolites, sont particulièrement répandus dans les mers tropicales et dans les régions tempérées chaudes; ils mènent une vie fouisseuse ou se cachent dans les creux des rochers, des Éponges ou des polypiers. Citons Axius; Calocaris, qui est hermaphrodite protandrique; les Callianasses, souterraines et fouisseuses un peu comme les Courtillières, avec les genres Callianassa et Upogebia.
