Abstract
    Unidentified Thalassinidea deposited in the Senckenberg Museum were examined. The collection here presented contains 25 species, including two new genera and five new species, i.e., Axiidae: Anomalaxius floridanus gen. nov., sp. nov.; Meticonaxiidae: Meteoraxius meteor gen. nov., sp. nov.; Callianassidae: Trypaea vilavelebita sp. nov., Callichirus santarosaensis sp. nov.; and Upogebiidae: Upogebia hertwecki sp. nov. The form Calastacus laevis De Saint Laurent, 1972 is recorded only for the second time and is fully described and illustrated from a complete specimen. New distribution data are available herein for all species treated.
