Crab trade in traditional markets is an important part of the fisheries distribution chain that reflects the utilization of marine resources by coastal communities. This study aims to identify the types of crabs (Brachyura) traded in traditional markets in Padang Barat District, Padang City, and to provide basic information for sustainable fisheries resource management. The research was conducted in February 2026 through direct observation at three traditional markets, namely Purus Fish Market, Raden Saleh Market, and Padang City Central Market. Data were collected through specimen documentation, species recording, and brief interviews with traders. The results of the study show that there are four species of crabs traded, all of which belong to the Portunidae family, namely Scylla serrata, Charybdis feriata, Portunus sanguinolentus, and Portunus pelagicus. The dominance of the Portunidae family indicates that swimming crabs are the main commodity in the marine product trade in the coastal area of West Sumatra. This study provides basic data on crab utilization in traditional markets and can support fisheries management, conservation of biological resources, and coastal economic development based on biodiversity.
