Two new species of land-dwelling sesarmid crabs of the genus Geosesarma De Man, 1892, are described from central Java, Indonesia. These species have been in the aquarium trade for many years and go by the popular name of "vampire crabs". The two species, here named Geosesarma dennerle and G. hagen, are formally described and compared with their closest congeners in Java, G. noduliferum (De Man, 1892) and G. bicolor Ng & Davie, 1995. The identities of G. noduliferum, the type species of the genus, and G. confertum (Ortmann, 1894) are also clarified.
