摘要：

A new species of deepwater spider crab, Pleistacantha ori, is described from the South Western Indian Ocean. The new species ranges from South Africa to Madagascar and has previously been confused with P. moseleyi (Miers, 1886) and P. pungens (Wood Mason & Alcock, 1891), which it most closely resembles. Pleistacantha ori is the largest known species of the genus, attaining a postrostral carapace length of at least 129.1 mm.
