Xantho is a genus of crabs in the family Xanthidae, containing five extant species,[2] all restricted to the north-east Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, although Xantho granulicarpis is not universally recognised as a separate species from Xantho hydrophilus:[3]
- Xantho granulicarpus Forest, 1953
- Xantho hydrophilus (Herbst, 1790)
- Xantho pilipes A. Milne-Edwards, 1867
- Xantho poressa (Olivi, 1792)
- Xantho sexdentatus (Miers, 1881)
