Psueodhtlephusidae is a family of freshwater crabs found chiefly in mountain streams in the Neotropics [2]. They are believed to have originated in the Greater Antilles and then crossed to Central America via a Pliocene land bridge [2].
Pseudothlepshusids are of significance to humans because many species are secondary hosts for lung flukes of the genus Paragonimus [3]. Predators of pseuthelphusid crabs include the yellow-spotted river turtle and the tufted capuchin [3].
