- Abstract
A new species of the wholly freshwater hymenosomatid crab genus Limnopilos Chuang & Ng, 1991, is described from Tonle Sap River in the lower Mekong drainage, Cambodia. This is the fourth species known, and the second one from Indochina. The type species, of Limnopilos , L. naiyanetri Chuang & Ng, 1991, was from the Chao Phraya drainage to the west in central Thailand. The new species is characterized by the presence of a rostrum, relatively shorter ambulatory legs and a different structure of the male first gonopod. Limnopilos sumatranus Naruse & Ng, 2007, is also recorded from southern Peninsular Malaysia for the first time.
