            <p> Paramoguai gen. nov.</p>
            <p>Diagnosis. Carapace subovate to pyriform, longer than wide, widest at branchial margins; lateral angles of posterior margin with prominent blunt projection; surface with scattered groups of short, dark, red-brown setae; mesogastric, cardiac, and intestinal regions each with prominent, upraised median protuberances. Front weakly bilobed, width about one-third fronto-orbital width. Suborbital margin well-developed, together with infraorbital margin forming shallow concavity (“cup”) on anterior surface. Maxilliped 3 rectangular, ischiomerus immovably fused, demarcation indicated only mesially by short suture; without median hiatus between inner margins when closed. Buccal margin of epistome bilobed, medially emarginated. Chelipeds monomorphic, more slender than walking legs, fingers without teeth on occlusal margins. Gonopod 1 strongly geniculate, deeply bifurcated forming two long branches. Abdominal somites 2–5 fused in males, 3–5 fused in females; somite 5 in males strongly constricted proximally, partially exposing gonopod 1. Gonopod 1 strongly geniculate, distal recurved portion deeply bifurcated into 2 slender branches.</p>
            <p> Species included.  Paramoguai kavieng sp. nov. (type species);  Paramoguai pyriforme (Naruse, 2005) comb. nov.</p>
            <p> Etymology. The name is a combination of the Greek prefix para - and generic name  Moguai alluding to the similarity of the two genera. Gender: neuter. </p>
            <p> Remarks.  Paramoguai gen. nov. belongs to the  Camptandrium -like group of genera, united by a constricted male abdomen that partially exposes gonopod 1 and the markedly elongate branches of the bifurcated portion of gonopod 1 (Manning &amp; Holthuis 1981; Tan &amp; Ng 1999). Of these genera,  Paramoguai resembles  Moguai Tan &amp; Ng, 1999 , sharing a proportionally elongate carapace and similar dorsal ornamentation (including a pair of posterolateral projections; “prongs” of Tan &amp; Ng 1999), fusion of abdominal somites 2–5 in males and 3–5 in females, similar orbital structure with a suborbital “cup”, and monomorphic chelipeds.  Paramoguai and  Moguai are distinguished by the elongate carapace, which in all other camptandriids is as wide as or wider than long.  Paramoguai differs from  Moguai in having an immovably fused maxilliped 3 ischiomerus with evidence of separation only mesially (resembling the condition present in  Camptandrium Stimpson, 1858 ), in having a proportionally narrower carapace front (about one-third versus one-half fronto-orbital width in  Moguai ), in having the anterolateral margins of the carapace positioned slightly within the dorsal outline of the carapace, and in having a bilobed buccal margin of the epistome, which is distinctly medially emarginate rather than forming a prominent median tooth. This latter feature of the epistome margin, unique in the  Camptandriidae , is evidence for the monophyly of  Paramoguai . </p>
            <p> Naruse (2005) described  Moguai pyriforme on the basis of female specimens from the Ryukyu Islands, Japan, recognising that it differed from  Moguai sensu stricto in having a narrower carapace front (about one-third frontoorbital width), a fused maxilliped 3 ischiomerus with only a short mesial suture, and anterolateral margins that lay within the dorsal outline of the carapace margins. His fig. 2B also indicates that the median buccal margin of the epistome is bilobed with a distinct median emargination. Kishino et al. (2014) provided a detailed supplemental account of  M. pyriforme including male morphology.  Moguai pyriforme clearly exhibits the diagnostic features of  Paramoguai , to which it is herein transferred. </p>

            <p> Etymology. Named after the general area from which the type material was collected,  Kavieng , New Ireland Province, Papua New Guinea; used as a noun in apposition. </p>
            <p> Remarks.  Paramoguai kavieng sp. nov. closely resembles its only congener,  P. pyriforme (Naruse, 2005) from the Ryukyu Islands, Japan, differing chiefly in carapace ornamentation and male gonopod morphology. The carapace of  P. kavieng differs from that of  P. pyriforme in having a distinct constriction behind the outer-orbital tooth (only slightly concave in P. pyrif or me) and in lacking the irregular ridge that starts anteriorly below the anterolateral margin and runs along the upper branchial margins, terminating at the posterolateral tubercle (which is much more prominent in the new species).  Paramoguai kavieng also differs from  P. pyriforme in having a rounded instead of acutely triangular tooth on the anterolateral corner of the buccal cavity, and a proportionally wider female telson (width 3.3 times length; 2.8 in  P. pyriforme ). The male gonopod 1 exhibits the most distinctive differences between  P. kavieng and  P. pyriforme . In  P. kavieng , the recurved, bifurcated distal portion of the gonopod lies close to (almost against) the proximal portion, with the branches of the bifurcation subparallel (Fig. 1 H). In contrast, the recurved portion of gonopod 1 in  P. pyriforme diverges strongly from the proximal portion, and the branches of the bifurcation are themselves distinctly divergent (Kishino et al. 2014). In  P. kavieng (Fig. 1 H), the mesial branch of the recurved portion is distally spiralled (straight in  P. pyriforme ), the blade-like lateral branch is armed with small spines (smooth in  P. pyriforme ), and there is no digitiform process projecting from the base of the bifurcation of the branches (present in  P. pyriforme ). </p>
            <p> The postorbital portion of the carapace is subcircular in both sexes of  P. kavieng . Aside from primary sexual differences, however, mature female  P. kavieng differ from males in the proportionally wider, more laterally expanded carapace, proportionally shorter fronto-orbital area, proportionally shorter, more slender pereopods 2–5 (as measured by meral length and proportions), and a larger maximum body size.  Paramoguai pyriforme exhibits similar sexual dimorphism (Kishino et al. 2014). </p>
            <p>Colour in life. Drab grey-brown with scattered tufts of dark red-brown setae (Fig. 3 A–C). The gastrofrontal area and posterior half of the carapace in one specimen was solid white (MNHN IU- 2014-2715; Fig. 3 D).</p>
            <p> Habitat.  Paramoguai kavieng was collected in shallow water (1–2 to 12 m depth) on substrates of sand, mud, silt, shell and seagrass. One specimen (MNHN IU- 2014-2590) was taken near a river mouth. The remainder, however, were taken from areas away from significant freshwater input suggesting that the ecology of  Paramoguai kavieng may differ from that of  P. pyriforme and species of  Moguai , all of which occur intertidally in estuarine and brackish habitats (Tan &amp; Ng 1999; Naruse 2005). </p>
            <p> Distribution. Presently known only from Papua New Guinea from localities in the vicinity of  Kavieng , New Ireland Province. </p>
