Abstract: Homolodromia in flata (Förster) described in this paper is found from the Miocene Cape Melville Formation of the glacio-marine sediments in King George Island, Antarctica. A comparison is made between the genera Homolodromia and Antarctidromia and a discussion is also made on the taxonomic placement of the genus Homolodromia in the Brachyura, we would like to consider that the genus Antarctidromia previously identified by Förster, may be a synonym of the genus Homolodromia.
Keywords: Homolodromiid crab, King George Island, Antarctica
