Abstract
A new species of potamid crab of the genus Teretamon Yeo Ng, 2007, is described from Namdapha Tiger Reserve in Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh, India. The new species, T. kempi n. sp., can be distinguished from its congeners by a distinct combination of carapace and gonopod characters: a relatively high carapace with a bilobed frontal margin; subquadrate sixth abdominal somite with nearly parallel lateral margins; and a relatively small G1 terminal segment with a semicircular to bluntly triangular dorsal flap. All known Teretamon species are compared with the new species, and a key for this genus is provided.
2007年在印度**昌朗区Namdapha老虎保护区发现的一新种赤蟹。新种肯皮(T. kempi n. sp.)可以通过甲壳和性腺类特征的明显组合来区别于其同属物种:甲壳相对较高，额缘有两叶;近方形的第六腹部体具近平行的侧缘;相对较小的G1末端节，有半圆形到钝三角形的背瓣。将所有已知的土鳖种与新种进行了比较，并提供了该属的钥匙。
期刊介绍：
Zootaxa is a peer-reviewed international journal for rapid publication of high quality papers on any aspect of systematic zoology, with a preference for large taxonomic works such as monographs and revisions. Zootaxa considers papers on all animal taxa, both living and fossil, and especially encourages descriptions of new taxa. All types of taxonomic papers are considered, including theories and methods of systematics and phylogeny, taxonomic monographs, revisions and reviews, catalogues/checklists, biographies and bibliographies, identification guides, analysis of characters, phylogenetic relationships and zoogeographical patterns of distribution, descriptions of taxa, and nomenclature. Open access publishing option is strongly encouraged for authors with research grants and other funds. For those without grants/funds, all accepted manuscripts will be published but access is secured for subscribers only.
