The checklist of the marine Brachyura from the Iraqi coast has been analyzed and presently it comprises 29 species. The Pilumnidae, Leucosiidae, Camptandriidae, and Macrophthalmidae are the most diverse families in the northwestern Persian-Arabian Gulf. Specimens of Phalangipus persicus Griffin, 1973 have been collected from the northwest of the Persian-Arabian Gulf, Iraq, at the Fao region in July 2019. This species is widely distributed in the Persian-Arabian Gulf, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and UAE; however, it is recorded for the first time from the Iraqi coasts.
