Abstract
The freshwater gecarcinucid species from Borneo previously referred to Sundathelphusa Bott, 1969, are transferred to a new genus. Borneosa gen. nov. can be diagnosed by the presence of a distinct frontal median triangle that is shorter than the frontal margin, a relatively longer male thoracic sternum in which the sternopleonal cavity reaches more anteriorly, and a male first gonopod that has the terminal segment prominently covered with long setae. The eight species recognised-B. tenebrosa (Holthuis, 1979), B. aspera (Ng & Stuebing, 1989), B. brachyphallus (Ng, 2015), and five new species, B. niah, B. bario, B. kapit, B. sarawakensis and B. serrata-can be distinguished by characters of the frontal median triangle, epibranchial tooth, anterolateral margin, third maxillipeds, ambulatory legs, male sternum, male pleon and male first gonopod.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
