Remarks . ɹ This small species is characterized by the club-shaped hairs of filthy appearance covering the carapace, chelipeds and ambulatory legs; the hairs are variable in length, but basically separated into short and long types . As shown in Fig. 4D–E , of three anterolateral teeth of the carapace behind the external orbital tooth, the first two are prominent and elongate, each with a minute horny tip, protruding from the hairs; the first originates from behind the outer part of the supraorbital margin, directing anterolaterally; the second is similar to the first in size and shape, but directed more anteriorly and weakly curving forwards; the third is small, acute at tip, and disguised by the hairs. The differences of the carapace anterolateral armature of this species and the close relative, N. barbatus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1873 ) , were illustrated by Sakai (1976) . Distribution . ɹ Known from Japan , the Philippines , Singapore and the Palau Islands in the West Pacific Ocean, and the Nicobar Islands in the eastern Indian Ocean.
