Clibanarius virescens (Krauss, 1843) (Fig. 3, 4) Pagurus virescens Krauss, 1843: 56, pl. 4, fig. 3 [type locality: South Africa]. Clibanarius aequabilis.—Stebbing, 1920: 258 (not Clibanarius aequabilis Dana, 1851).? Calcinus astathes Stebbing, 1924: 239, pI. 2 [type locality: South Africa]. Clibanarius philippinensis Yap-Chiongco, in Estampador, 1937: 501. Clibanarius sachalinicus Kobjakova, 1955: 241: fig. 7 [type locality: south-eastern Sakhalin; probably mislabeling]. Material examined. Holotype female (ZIN №45674), Okhotsk Sea, Mordvinova Bay, st. 57 (179-1948) (without exact coordinates), depth 52 meters, coll by r/v ‘Toporok” during Kuril-Sakhalin Expedition, 2 Sept 1947.

Thus, C. sachalinicus should be considered as a junior synonym of C. virescens. It was also concluded by McLaughlin (1996) than type specimens of Calcinus astathes Stebbing, 1924 ... : Published as part of Marin, Ivan, 2016, Notes on holotypes of hermit crabs (Decapoda: Anomura: Paguroidea) deposited in the collection of Zoological Museum of RAS (Saint-Petersburg, Russia) with remarks on hermit crab diversity along the Russian coast of the Sea of Japan, pp. 171-180 in Zootaxa 4105 (2) on pages 172-174, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4105.2.5, http://zenodo.org/record/254968 ...
