Abstract:
The decapod crustacean fauna of the Bau Limestone Area comprises of six species of prawns and 10 species of crabs. Of these, three species of crabs of the genera Ibanum, Coccusa and Geosersama are described as new to science. While most of the fauna are not obligate karst species, the discovery of the new speciesas well as numerous new records and re-discoveries after a long lapses in the sites suggests the Bau Limestone Area is still species-rich and merits conservation in part or whole.
