Metacarcinus is a genus of crabs formerly included in the genus Cancer.^[1] It includes nine exclusively fossil species and five extant species, of which four are also known from the fossil record.^[2] The monophyly of this genus was not supported by a molecular study using the cytochrome oxidase I gene.^[3]

Included species:^[4]

Metacarcinus anthonyi (Pliocene to Recent)
† Metacarcinus danai (Miocene, California)
† Metacarcinus davidi (Miocene to Pliocene, California)
Metacarcinus edwardsii
† Metacarcinus goederti (Oligocene, Alaska)
Metacarcinus gracilis (Pliocene to Recent)
Metacarcinus granti
† Metacarcinus izumoensis (Miocene, Japan)
† Metacarcinus jenniferae (Middle Pliocene, California)
Metacarcinus magister (Pliocene to Recent)
† Metacarcinus minutoserratus (Pliocene, Japan)
Metacarcinus novaezelandiae
† Metacarcinus starri (Early Oligocene, Washington)
