A survey was conducted to study the distribution of brachyuran crabs along the coast of south Andaman Island during 2015-2018. The investigation confirmed the occurrence of Atergatis ocyroe (Herbst, 1801) from the Port Blair Coast of Andaman & Nicobar Islands, India. From a comprehensive study of standard literature, it was evident that A. ocyroe was misidentified as A. floridus and these two species do not co-exist in the same geographical area. Hence, the existence of A. floridus in Andaman and Nicobar Islands is doubtful. The confirmed distributional record of A. ocyroe across the Indian Ocean is provided and discussed with its taxonomy, and detailed description along with photograph and line diagram is provided in this study.

关于阿特加斯菌的分类学鉴定的澄清说明（赫斯特，1801年）（甲壳纲：十足目：黄蛾科）：来自印度安达曼和尼科巴群岛的布莱尔港海岸的新分配记录

进行了一项调查，以研究2015-2018年安达曼岛南部沿海地区短臂蟹的分布。调查证实，印度安达曼和尼科巴群岛的布莱尔港海岸发生了Atergatis ocyroe（Herbst，1801）。从标准文献的综合研究，很明显，A. ocyroe被误为A. floridus和这两个品种在同一地理区域不并存。因此，在安达曼和尼科巴群岛中是否存在A. floridus。确认的比目鱼分布记录提供并讨论了整个印度洋的分类，并提供了详细的描述以及照片和线图。
