Specimens of a xanthid crab Atergatis floridus were collected from two adjacent areas in Kabira Bay, Ishigaki Island, Okinawa and compared with respect to toxicity and toxin composition. 'Reef specimens', which were collected from the reefs of Kabira Bay, showed an average toxicity score of 380 MU/g as paralytic shellfish poison, and a toxin composition consisting mainly of saxitoxin and a neosaxitoxin-related substance. On the other hand, 'Kojima specimens', which were collected from a small island in the bay, showed an average toxicity of 38 MU/g as tetrodotoxin, and a toxin composition consisting mainly of tetrodotoxin and related substance(s).
从冲绳县石垣岛加比拉湾的两个相邻区域采集了黄斑蟹（Atergatis floridus）样本，并对其毒性和毒素成分进行了比较。从加比拉湾珊瑚礁采集的“珊瑚礁样本”，其麻痹性贝类毒素的平均毒性评分为380 MU/g，毒素成分主要由石房蛤毒素和一种新石房蛤毒素相关物质组成。另一方面，从该湾一个小岛采集的“小嶋样本”，其河豚毒素的平均毒性为38 MU/g，毒素成分主要由河豚毒素及相关物质组成。
