Abstract There are four species of mud crab in genus Scylla, including Scylla aradamosain, S.serrata, S.tranquebarica, and S.olivacea, in which S.paramemosain as the largest mariculture crab species in China is widely distributed in the southeast coast of China. S.paramemosain is known as the “masterpiece of seawater” due to its delicious taste and high price. In recent years, however, the aquaculture area, aquaculture yield, and capture yield of Chinese mud crab have shown a downward trend. At the same time, the demand for mud crab has been continuously increasing, leading to increasingly prominent supply-demand contradictions. This article summarizes an overview of the breeding, seedling cultivation, aquaculture models, artificial feed, diseases, and other aquaculture status of Chinese mud crab, as well as the types, fishing, and processing of mud crab resources. It is suggested that China’s mud crab industry should mainly focus on expanding breeding space, breeding high-quality varieties, improving seedling cultivation level, and breaking through intermediate cultivation technologies. Efforts will be made to optimize the breeding mode and develop new models, develop artificial feed combinations, develop new forms of products, and strengthen the brand of mud crab in the future. The findings will provide scientific references for promoting high-quality development of mud crab culture industry.
