A new species of freshwater crab of the genus Cumberlidge & Clark, 1992 is described from Mount Manengouba Reserve and Bakossi National Park in the tropical rainforests of southwestern Cameroon, Central Africa. is recognized by characters of the carapace and chelipeds. In addition, a phylogenetic analysis based on partial sequences of three mitochondrial DNA genes (COI, 12S rRNA, and 16S rRNA) that included representatives of all other freshwater crab genera found in Cameroon recovered each of the new species as a distinct lineage. A diagnosis and illustrations of the new species are provided, and it is compared to the other species of . Brief notes are provided on the ecology of the new species and the two other species of . An identification key to the species of is provided. The conservation status of the genus is discussed.
1992年坎伯利奇与克拉克属的一种淡水蟹新物种,是在中非喀麦隆西南部热带雨林的马嫩古巴山自然保护区和巴科西国家公园发现并描述的。它通过头胸甲和螯足的特征得以识别。此外,基于三个线粒体DNA基因(细胞色素氧化酶亚基I、12S核糖体RNA和16S核糖体RNA)的部分序列进行的系统发育分析,其中包括喀麦隆发现的所有其他淡水蟹属的代表物种,结果显示每个新物种都构成一个独特的谱系。文中给出了新物种的诊断和图示,并将其与该属的其他物种进行了比较。还提供了关于新物种以及该属其他两个物种生态的简要说明。给出了该属物种的鉴定检索表。讨论了该属的保护状况。
