 Freshwaters in North Borneo. By L. A. Borradaile,

[Received January 12, 1900.] 



By the courtesy of Dr. R. Hanitsch, of the Raffles Museum at 

 Singapore, I am given the opportunity of reporting on some fresh- 

 water Crustaceans obtained by him in North Borneo during the 

 month of March 1899. 



The collection contains specimens of the following species : — 



1. Palcemon pilimanus de Man. 



2. Potamon convexum (de Man). 



3. Potamon consobrinum de Man. 



4. Potamon kadamaianum, n. sp. 



All the three known species have been already recorded from 

 Borneo ; and the new one is allied to a form found in that 

 island by the Dutch Central Borneo expedition. 



Suborder MACRURA. 



Tribe Caridea. 

 Family Paljemonid^e. 



Genus Palcemon. 



1. Palcemon (Macrobrachittm) pilimanus de Man. 



Palcemon pilimanus, de Man, Notes Leyd. Mus. i. p. 181(1879) ; 

 Veth's ' Midden-Sumatra,' Crust, p. 4, pi. ii. fig. 2 (1887). 



Palcemon (Macrobrachium) pilimanus, Ortmann, Zool. Jahrb. x. 

 Syst. p. 735, pi. xlvii. fig. 9 (1891); de Man, Notes Leyd. Mus. 

 xx. p. 158 (1898). 



The single specimen, which is from the Inuman River, between 

 Kalawal and Bungol, British North Borneo, differs from Ortmann's 

 figure in having the submedian spines of the telson considerably 

 shorter ; it is very possible, however, that the ends of these have 

 been worn or broken off. 



Suborder BRACHYURA. 



Tribe Ctclometopa. 



Family Potamoniile. 



Genus Potamon. 



2. Potamon (Parathelphusa) convexum (de Man). 



Paratelphusa conve.va de Haan, de Man, Notes Leyd. Mus. i. 

 p. 63 (1879); Max Weber's 'Reise Ned. O.-Ind.' ii. p. 302 (1892).
