The new species is morphologically most similar to B. sexangula (Alcock, 1896) and B. persicum Trivedi, Naderloo, Viswanathan &amp; Mitra, 2022 in the structure of carapace and in the length of chelipeds, but it can easily be distinguished by the structures of the palm of the chelipeds and male first gonopod. Two species placed in Bellayra, B. taekoae (Takeda, 1972) and B. nishihirai (Takeda &amp; Nakasone, 1991), do not fit the genus as presently understood and should be referred back to the genus Philyra Leach, 1817 for the time being.</p>","language":"eng","homepage":"https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/summary/FFD9FFFAAA6AFFD02D54FF9B8E24FFCB","citation":{"text":"Kolevatov V A, Thinh N V, Marin I N, plazi (2025).
