Cyclocoeloma is a genus of crabs in the family Majidae containing the single species Cyclocoeloma tuberculata. Cyclocoeloma tuberculata is widespread throughout the tropical waters of the central Indo-Pacific region. Many spider crabs cover their bodies to camouflage themselves from potential predators especially during the day; C. tuberculata fixes sea anemones of the family Discosomatidae to its carapace and soft corals of the family Xeniidae to its legs.
