Abstract

At present, descriptions of Cleantioides emarginata Kwon & Kim, 1992 have been limited to the type locality of Pusan, Korea. In this study, we discovered this species in the Changjiang (Yangtze) River estuary, China. This represents an extension of the known geographical range of C. emarginata. In addition, we present information of a colour pattern not previously described, along with details on the estuarine habitat of the species.
