A new genus and new species of semi-terrestrial crab of the family Potamidae, Binhthuanomon vinhtan n. sp., is described from south central Vietnam. The new genus is morphologically closest to Villopotamon Dang & Ho, 2003, and Balssipotamon Dang & Ho, 2008, in the shapes of the carapace and first gonopod but is easily distinguished by distinct carapace characteristics and gonopod 1 structures, and the habitat occupied.
描述了来自越南中南部的溪蟹科半陆生蟹的一个新属和新物种——永新滨蟹(Binhthuanomon vinhtan n. sp.)。该新属在头胸甲和第一交接器的形状上与2003年的维氏溪蟹属(Villopotamon Dang & Ho)及2008年的巴尔氏溪蟹属(Balssipotamon Dang & Ho)形态最为接近,但通过明显的头胸甲特征、第一交接器结构以及所占据的栖息地可轻易区分开来。
