Hainanpotamon is a genus of freshwater crabs, containing the following species:[1][2]
- Hainanpotamon auriculatum Yeo & Naruse, 2008
- Hainanpotamon daiae Yeo & Naruse, 2008
- Hainanpotamon directum Yeo & Naruse, 2008
- Hainanpotamon fuchengense Dai, 1995
- Hainanpotamon glabrum (Dang, 1967)
- Hainanpotamon helense Dai, 1995
- Hainanpotamon orientale (Parisi, 1916)
- Hainanpotamon rubrum (Dang & Tran, 1992)
- Hainanpotamon vietnamicum (Dang & Hô, 2002)
The genus was originally described in 1975 by Dang as Orientalia but that name was a junior homonym of the mollusc genus Orientalia, established by Radoman in 1975.[3] The first available name is therefore Hainanpotamon, independently established by Dai in 1975.[3]
