Remarks. Dardanus lagopodes was described by Forskål (1775) as Cancer lagopodes from the Red Sea, and is a very common species in the Indo-West Pacific. Two colour forms have been reported for D. lagopodes, the “black/brown/ blue knee” form (colour description varies depending on author) and the “red knee” form (Fize & Serène, 1955 as Pagurus sanguinolentus; Lewinsohn, 1969; Ball & Haig, 1972; McLaughlin et al., 2007). In addition, considerable morphological variation has been noted for this species (Forest, 1953b; Fize & Serène, 1955; Ball & Haig, 1972). In the course of the present study, strong morphological, colour, and genetic differences were detected within D. lagopodes, which can now be recognised as a species complex. For the first time, it has been possible to link morphological variation with the different colour forms and with mitochondrial DNA data. Morphological and genetic differences clearly indicate that the two colour forms, the “black/brown/blue knee” (hereafter simply referred to as the “blue knee” form) and the “red knee” form, represent two distinct species.
In the absence of colouration, these two species are most easily distinguished on the basis of the sculpturing on the propodus of the left third pereopod (LP3). The LP3 of the blue knee form exhibits great variation: the propodus smooth, cylindrical, and of the same width as the dactyl (Fig. 5A); or it may be flattened, broader, and covered with corneous spines (Fig. 5B). Nonetheless the LP3 propodus never bears a sulcus on its outer surface. On the other hand the red knee form is characterised by a deep sulcus on the upper half of the lateral face of the left third pereopod dactyl and propodus (Fig. 5C).
Telson with lateral constrictions; marginal area partially calcified; posterior lobes separated by median cleft, left much larger than right, each with 7 ventral corneous spines near terminal margin, terminal margins fringed with long setae; anterior lobes with long setae on lateral margins.
Colour. Shield brownish purple, with large brown spot anteriorly; posterior carapace mottled red and tan. Ocular peduncles uniform purplish brown, with narrow yellow line next to black cornea. Antennules and antennae yellowish brown. Chelipeds reddish purple with white tubercles and white–tipped red setae. Pereopods 2 and 3 reddish purple; broad black band at distal end of merus and large black patch on carpus; setae reddish purple with white tips (see Haig & Ball, 1988).
The two species are also clearly distinct genetically. Tree-based analyses (maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches) yielded congruent results, and showed reciprocally monophyletic blue knee and red knee clades (Fig. 9). No phylogeographic structuring was detected within each of the two species despite inclusion of both Philippine and Taiwan samples. Moreover, inclusion of one blue knee specimen from the Tuamotu did not increase phylogeographic structuring.
Average intraspecific K2P values are 0.9% (± 0.5%) for the blue knee species and 1.5% (± 0.4%) for the red knee species. The average K2P genetic distance between blue knee and red knee species is 19.1% (± 0.4%). As a comparison, in the diogenid genus Calcinus K2P distances separating closely related sister-species ranged from 2.6% – 25% (average 16.1 ± 5.3%; see Malay & Paulay, 2010). Therefore, the genetic distance between blue knee and red knee Dardanus is within the range of interspecific genetic distances for diogenids. The fact that blue knee and red knee morphs maintain reciprocal monophyly and large genetic distances in sympatry is compelling evidence that they are good biological species. The phylogeny also revealed one distinctly different COI haplotype from a specimen initially identified as D. lagopodes in the field, which upon closer examination turned out to be a new species (Dardanus balhibuon new species, described below).
To which colour form the name D. lagopodes is applied has to be determined. Unfortunately, virtually all of Forskål’s types have been lost, including that of D. lagopodes (viz. Ng et al., 2008). However, in his very short diagnosis, Forskål (1775) mentioned the colour “cinereo-fuscus”, or gray-brown. This shows that Forskål dealt with the blue knee colour form. Moreover, Lewinsohn (1969) examined specimens from the type locality (the Red Sea) and reported the presence of both colour forms, while emphasising the brown colouration in his notes. The figure of D. lagopodes from the type locality provided by Lewinsohn (1969: pl. 2, Figs. 1, 2) matches very well with the morphological characters of the left cheliped and LP3 of the blue knee form. Furthermore, the two color forms are easily recognised and very common in intertidal areas throughout the Indo-West Pacific, thus there is no doubt that Forskål’s types D. lagopodes were of the blue knee species.
The following species have long been regarded as synonyms of D. lagopodes (Forskål, 1775): D. sanguinolentus (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824); D. affinis (H. Milne Edwards, 1836); D. euopsis (Dana, 1852); D. depressus (Heller, 1861); and D. hellerii Paul’son, 1875. Quoy & Gaimard (1824) described D. sanguinolentus from a specimen probably collected in Mauritius (see Forest, 1953b, p. 560). Unfortunately their description and illustration lack sufficient detail to distinguish which species they described. Forest (1953b) examined the type specimen of D. sanguinolentus at the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, and noted that D. sanguinolentus has “ une depression longitudinale ” on the lateral face of propodus of the left third pereopod, while for the type of D. affinis the propodus of the third left pereopod is more elongate, the lateral face is not depressed but straight or convex (see Forest, 1953b, Figs. 13, 14). Forest (1953b) did not describe the colouration but the description of these characters already indicates that Forest was dealing with the two forms of D. lagopodes.
The first author had the opportunity to re-examine the holotypes of D. sanguinolentus and D. affinis at the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle in Paris, and confirms that the D. sanguinolentus holotype (MNHN Pg. 1304) bears the deep sulcus on the outer face of the LP3 propodus characteristic of the red knee form. On the other hand, the D. affinis holotype (MNHN Pg. 1305) has a smoothly convex LP3 propodus, corresponding to the D. lagopodes blue knee form. Therefore it is now possible to assign the species name D. sanguinolentus (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824) to the red knee form, while D. affinis is a junior synonym of D. lagopodes.
The original description of D. depressus can be applied to both D. lagopodes and D. sanguinolentus, however Heller (1861) mentioned the colouration of the species as “rubescens”. The syntypes of D. depressus were redescribed by McLaughlin & Dworschak (2001, p. 150–151). They describe the left third pereopod of D. depressus as having a “weak longitudinal sulcus” on the lateral face of the dactyl, while the lateral face of the propodus is “concave in dorsal half”. Photographs of the syntypes (NHMW 19396, two syntypes) kindly provided by P. Dworschak show that the description corresponds to the sulcus on the lateral face of the left third pereopod that characterises D. sanguinolentus. The depressed carapace noted in the original description of D. depressus appears to be an ecological feature related to occupation of shells with a narrow aperture (Paul’son, 1875; Forest, 1953b).
The type specimen of D. euopsis could not be located for study, and is probably lost. Most of Dana’s specimens from the US exploring expedition were lent to William Stimpson, and sadly were burned in the great Chicago fire of 1871 (Evans, 1967). However, Dana (1852: 453) described the colouration of the pereopods of D. euopsis as follows: “The legs are pale sepia with a dark maroon (nearly black) broad band on the third and fourth joints of the second and third pairs”. This colouration showed that Dana (1852) was likely dealing with D. lagopodes sensu stricto.
Dardanus hellerii was described from the Red Sea by Paul’son (1875). Paul’son’s type specimens cannot be located (M. Tuerkay, pers. comm.). However, Paul’son (1875) stated that his specimen was very close to D. depressus (= D. sanguinolentus) except for its ophthalmic somite with prominent interocular structure which is oval in shape and has two distal denticles and small median groove, and the colour of the legs is yellowish with external surface of merus red. The oval shape of the interocular structure cannot be considered as a specific character of the D. hellerii, as examination of the species in the genus Dardanus revealed that all have the same structure. The colour mentioned by Paul’son (1875) matched the colour of D. sanguinolentus. Therefore it is highly likely that Paul’son was dealing with D. sanguinolentus.
In conclusion, the name Dardanus lagopodes (Forskål, 1775) should refer to the blue knee form. Dardanus affinis (H. Milne Edwards, 1836) and D. euopsis (Dana, 1852) are junior synonyms of D. lagopodes. The name D. sanguinolentus (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824) is relevant for the red knee species. Dardanus depressus (Heller, 1861) is a junior synonym for D. sanguinolentus. Dardanus hellerii Paul’son, 1875 is a nomen dubium but if it belongs to the “ D. lagopodes ” species complex, it should also be a junior synonym of D. sanguinolentus according to the original colour description.
While many published records of D. lagopodes lack sufficient detail to distinguish this species from D. sanguinolentus, by careful checking we are able to determine that D. lagopodes is known with certainty from the Red Sea (type locality), Djibouti, East Africa, South Africa, Mayotte, Glorieuses, Madagascar, Réunion, Mauritius, Maldives, India, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Christmas Island, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, New Guinea, Australia, Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, Marianas, New Caledonia, Loyalty Islands, Marshall Islands, Kiribati, Tuvalu, Rotuma, Wallis and Futuna, Samoa, Cooks, Society, and Tuamotu.
The Philippine record of Pagurus euopsis by Estampador (1937: 503) and Estampador (1959: 51) can represent both D. lagopodes and D. sanguinolentus since no colouration or morphology account was mentioned. The present paper confirms that both D. lagopodes and D. sanguinolentus are present in the Philippines.
