Kepiting infraordo Brachyura dikelompokkan ke dalam 53 familia yang tersebar di seluruh dunia. Di Indonesia dapat ditemukan 40 familia kepiting non air tawar dan tiga familia endemik kepiting air tawar, yaitu: Potamidae, Gecarcinudae, dan Parathelpusidae. Karapas dan capit (chela) merupakan bagian tubuh kepiting yang dapat digunakan untuk identifikasi taksonomi. Beberapa fragmen fosil kepiting yang dijumpai di Indonesia biasanya berupa bagian karapas dan capit. Panduan mengenai karakter morfologi karapas dan capit anggota infraordo Brachyura belum tersedia terutama untuk identifikasi fosil kepiting di Indonesia, sehingga perlu dikaji. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji karakter morfologi karapas dan capit sebagai karakter diagnostik kepiting sehingga dapat dimanfaatkan dalam identifikasi fosil kepiting. Spesimen yang diteliti adalah koleksi dari Laboratorium Sistematika Hewan Fakultas Biologi, Universitas Gadjah Mada. Metode yang digunakan yaitu komparasi morfologi dan karakteristik dari karapas dan capit serta studi referensi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa karakter karapas dan capit, meliputi: bentuk karapas, ornamentasi karapas bagian lateral dan dorsal, salah satu capit membesar, tuberkula pada gigi capit, dan bentuk capit, dapat digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi jenis kepiting infraordo Brachyura dan dapat dijadikan referensi untuk identifikasi fragmen fosil kepiting yang dijumpai di Indonesia terutama di Pulau Jawa.
