| Abstract | Seven species of Paguristes were collected in Indonesian waters during the expeditions of the Siboga (1899), the Danish Expedition to the Kei Island (1922), Th. Mortensen’s Expeditions (1899-1930), CORINDON (1980), Snellius II (1984) and KARUBAR (1991). Three species: P. arostratus, P. brachyrostris and P. antennarius were new to science. Three of four described species were previously unrecorded from Indonesia: P. palythophilus Ortmann, 1892, known only from the northwestern Pacific, was found to be common in Indonesian waters; P. aciculus Grant, 1905, previously known from Australia, was represented by two males and one intact female specimens, therefore female morphological characters could be completed; and P. pusillus Henderson, 1896 was found in deeper waters than previously reported. The fourth species was P. puniceus Henderson, 1896. |
