In this introductory report on the crabs of the Ogasawara Islands altogether 123 species of 12 families were enumerated on the authorities of the previous workers. They are 2 species of the family Dromiidae, 4 of the Calappidae, 1 of the Hymenosomatidae, 13 of the Majidae, 5 of the Parthenopidae, 6 of the Portunidae, 63 of the Xanthidae, 2 of the Goneplacidae, I of the Pinnotheridae, 6 of the Ocypodidae, 18 of the Grapsidae, and 2 of the Gecarcinidae. Even if the identifications may be not always correct in some xanthid and other species, the monumental records are worthy as the indicators of the Ogasawara Islands crabs unless there are no definite reasons to reject the names. Most of the species are widely distributed in the southern Indo-West Pacific waters, differing as a whole from the crab fauna of the Japanese mainland.
