Distribution. Orchestia montagui is an apparent Mediterranean and Black Sea endemic widely reported from a number of coasts, such as those of Spain (Chevreux & Fage 1925); France (Chevreux & Fage 1925, Charniaux- Legrand 1951, Karaman 1970); Italy (Cecchini 1928, Stammer 1932, Ruffo 1936, Brian 1939, Giordani-Soika 1950, Bellan-Santini 1993); Yugoslavia (Heller 1866, Ruffo 1946, Krapp-Schickel 1969, Karaman 1971); Greece (Bellan-Santini 1993, Karaman 1970, De Matthaeis et al. 1998, this study); Turkey (Geldiay et al. 1971, Karaman 1971); Black Sea (Karaman 1970, Grintsov 2011); Egypt (Audouin 1826), Tunisia (Chevreux 1911) and Algeria (Chevreux 1911).
