Pagurus Pagurus Pagurus is a genus of hermit crabs in the family Paguridae. Like other hermit crabs, their abdomen is not calcified and they use snail shells as portable homes. These marine decapod crustaceans are omnivorous, but mostly prey on small animals and scavenge carrion. "Trigonocheirus" and "Pagurixus" used to be considered subgenera of "Pagurus", but the former is nowadays included in "Orthopagurus", while the latter has been separated as a distinct genus.
