| Abstract |
The Lobsters collected by the KARUBAR cruise from Indonesia are examined. Twenty-one species are identified, ten of which being newly recorded in Indonesia. Moreover, the KARUBAR cruise obtained an intact specimen of Metanephrops aralurensis (de Man, 1905) and a re-description is given for this poorly known species. The four species groups in Metanephrops are redefined and a revised key to the species of Metanephrops is provided. |
