Description:We present the first report of the Lesser Mexican Fiddler Crab, Minuca zacae Crane, 1941, in Panama. The identity of crabs from the Gulfs of Montijo and Parita was confirmed by presenting a broad frontal region, oblique orbits, and a palm without an oblique tuberculate ridge. This report fills a distribution gap between Costa Rica and Colombia and updates this species range from Altata Bay, northern Mexico, to Málaga Bay, Colombia.
