A, B) depressed, 1.5 times broader than long, regions well defined; 2M partially divided longitudinally, lateral lobe larger than medial lobe, medial lobe fused with 1M; 3M prominent anteriorly, becoming indistinct posteriorly, 4M indistinct; 1L, 2L, 3L fused; 4L fused with third anterolateral tooth; 5L, 6L low but distinct; dorsal regions of carapace granulose at edges, becoming less so medially; granules evidently arranged as transverse rows on 2M, closely, randomly packed on anterior edges of carapace, scattered elsewhere. Front narrow, about 0.2 times carapace width, bilobed, projecting well beyond supraorbital margins; lobes truncate, separated by narrow slit, anterior margins straight. Supraorbital margin granular, short, separated from frontal lobes by deep, U-shaped incision; with small, triangular, internal orbital tooth; without obvious external orbital tooth; not clearly meeting anterolateral margin. Inferior orbital angle granular, with distinct, triangular tooth on medial end. Orbits small, width 0.07 times carapace width. Anterolateral margin convex, with 4 triangular teeth, first feeble, second, third broadly triangular, sometimes bifurcated, fourth acutely triangular, at point of maximum carapace width; anterior-most part not clearly meeting orbital margin, descending instead towards buccal frame. Posterolateral margin almost straight, convergent posteriorly. Central portion of posterior carapace margin slightly concave, with distinct row of spherical granules immediately anterior to it.

Somites 35 immovably fused, vestigial sutures seen as shallow depressions; lateral margins markedly concave; external surface of somite 3 rugose with granular posterolateral margins, external surface of somites 4, 5 smooth. Somite 6 subrectangular, longer than telson, greatest width about 1.1 times median length, lateral margins distinctly concave, distolateral angles well produced. Telson semicircular, basal width about 1.4 times median length, and about as long as somite 6.

The specimens were collected from the trash basket at one of the intake points of Kapar Power Station, and were presumably sucked into the station from the immediately surrounding area. The station is located on a mudflat surrounded by mangrove forests, and the crabs were only obtained at the intake point from which Unit 6 of the power station drew its water at a depth of 7.0 m.
