Description 76-82
The Menippe rumphii (Fabricius, 1798),  marine crab,  occurring along the rocky shores of coastal
areas of east coast of India was located along  the rocky shores of the Konkan coastal region
of Maharashtra.  Classical taxonomy is
applied for identification of this crab. 
Taxonomic descriptions and morphometric analysis confirmed the species
as Menippe rumphii. The 16S rRNA gene from Menippe rumphii adults
was sequenced to corroborate species identification. Phylogenetic analysis
showed ostensible clade between sequences of Menippe rumphii from NCBI
and study crab.  Classical taxonomy and
16S rRNA gene marker substantiated the record of the specimens from the Konkan
coast.
