This database is the result of a combination of international collaboration efforts to collect specimens of Halicarcinus planatus through its geographical distribution in the Southern Ocean and bibliographic reviews. There are 4 types of records: (1) individualized by specimen, comprising more than 1,150 animals corresponding to nominal species of Halicarcinus planatus in South America and Kerguelen Islands, (2) groups of specimens of H. planatus collected and stored, (3) records obtained by bibliographic reviews, and (4) more than 50 absence records of H. planatus. The purpose of this resource is to complement molecular, taxonomic, biogeographic and niche-modelling studies that are being carried out based on these specimens. ...
