Callianassa is a genus of mud shrimps, in the family Callianassidae. Three of the species in this genus ( C. candida , C. tyrrhena and C. whitei ) have been split off into a new genus, Pestarella , ^[3] while others such as Callianassa filholi have been moved to Biffarius . ^[4] The genus is named after the Nereid of the Greco-Roman mythology.
