Abstract

Three species of freshwater decapod crustaceans are reported from the Temengor rainforests in the northwestern Malaysian state of Perak Peninsular Malaysia. The presence of the potamid crab Johora tahanensis (Bott 1966) in Temengor represents a subtantial northerly range extension for the species (previously known from Pahang). The species is also reported for the first time from the states of Selangor and Kelantan. Two species of palaemonid prawns are present M. Lanchesteri (De Man 1911) and a new taxon Macrobrachium forcipatum sp. nov.
