Charybdis (Goniohellenus) omanensis septentrionalis Türkay & Spiridonov, was collected from off the Kerala coast, Arabian Sea, India. This is the first record of the subspecies from India and the taxonomic characters are similar to the findings of Türkay & Spiridonov () who described the subspecies for the first time. The present work also records molecular sequences from the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I gene (COI), used to determine the genetic identity of the species.
Charybdis (Goniohellenus) omanensis septentrionalis Türkay & Spiridonov, a été récolté près des côtes de Kérala, Mer d’Arabie, Inde. Il s’agit du premier signalement de cette sous espèce en Inde et les caractères taxonomiques sont semblables aux résultats de Türkay & Spiridonov () qui ont décrit la sous espèce pour la première fois. Cette étude présente aussi les séquences moléculaires du gène mitochondrial de la cytochrome oxydase I (COI), utilisé pour déterminer l’identité génétique des espèces.
