Grapsus longitarsis is a species of crab in the family Grapsidae, native to the Indo-Pacific.[3] It was first described by James Dwight Dana in 1851, from a specimen found in the Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia.[1][4]

The basis for the decision of synonymy is Banerjee (1960).[1][2]

G. longitarsis is a tropical, benthic species living at depths ranging from 0–5 m in the intertidal zone. Precopulatory courtship (via smell and touch) is common and the sperm transfer is usually indirect.[3]
