摘要：

A new genus and species of portunid crab, Richerellus moosai, is described from five specimens collected in the New Caledonian lagoon, at depths of 15-20 and 50 m. The closest genus to Richerellus is Carupa Dana, 1851, and thus Richerellus is included in the subfamily Carupinae Paulson, 1875. Richerellus differs from Carupa by several characters of which the most remarkable are the number of anterolateral teeth of the carapace and the cheliped length.
