Abstract

319 COMPARISON OF UPOGEBIA LINCOLNI NGOC-HO, 1977 WITH UPOGEBIA MIY AKEI SAKAI, 1967 (DECAPODA, THALASSINIDEA) BY NGUYEN NGOC-HO Department of Zoology, British Museum (Natural History), Cromwell Road, London, England It has been suggested that U. lincolni may be identical to U. miyakei ( see Ngoc-Ho, 1977) and the present note is to clarify the problem after examination of the holotype (the only known specimen) of the latter species, a female of 18.5 mm t.l.
