status

 

Genus Parasesarma De Man, 1895 View in CoL , sensu Shahdadi & Schubart, 2017

Type species. Cancer quadratus Fabricius, 1798 , subsequent designation by Rathbun (1918).

Remarks. Here we focus on the description of the new species and update the taxonomic accounts of P. indiarum and P. eumolpe . The taxonomy and morphologies of the three related species, P. indiarum , P. foresti , and P. messa , as well as their phylogeography is currently being investigated by us and will be treated at length in a separate study.
