Zootaxa 5636 (2): 395-400, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5636.2.12, URL: doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5636.2.12
Abstract

The identity of the poorly known sponge crab Petalomera indica Alcock, 1900 (Dromiidae De Hann, 1833), originally described from Port Blair, South Andaman Island, India, is clarified and the species redescribed from a new specimen collected from Digha Mohana Port in the West Bengal State of India. The type material is lost and the species was previously only known from its original description and figures. The morphological affinities of P. indica with allied congeners are also discussed in detail.
To stabilize the taxonomy of P. indica, the specimen from West Bengal is designated as the neotype of P. indica Alcock, 1900.
