Ng, Peter K. L. and Schubart, Christoph D. (2003) On the identities of Sesarma obesum Dana, 1851 and Sesarma eydouxi H. Milne Edwards, 1853 (Crustacea, decapoda, brachyura, sesarmidae). ZOOSYSTEMA, 25 (3). pp. 425-437. ISSN 1280-9551

The identities of two poorly known species of Indo-West Pacific sesarmid crabs, which have been referred to the genus Chiromantes Gistel, 1848, are clarified. Sesarma obesum Dana, 1851, is shown to be a senior synonym of Metasesarma rousseauxi H. Milne Edwards, 1853. A neotype from northern Borneo is designated to fix the identity of the species. Sesarma eydouxi H. Milne Edwards, 1853, a species supposedly described from Vietnam and not reported there or in the re ion since its description, is shown to be a junior synonym of the Atlantic species Sesarma rectum Randall, 1840; its original provenance almost certainly being incorrect.
