'''Raninoida''' is a taxonomic [[section (zoology)|section]] of the [[crab]]s, containing a single [[superfamily (taxonomy)|superfamily]], '''Raninoidea'''. This group of crabs is unlike most, with the [[abdomen]] not being folded under the [[thorax]]. It comprises 46 extant species, and nearly 200 species known only from [[fossil]]s.<ref name="Grave"/>
