Abstract
The poorly known pilumnid crab Cryptocoeloma haswelli Rathbun, 1923, is redescribed and figured at length on the basis of fresh specimens from Hong Kong and Taiwan, both of which constitute new local records. The male is redescribed and figured as the only previous account of it had been based on a gynandromorph. The species is also compared in detail with Heteropilumnus fimbriatus (H. Milne Edwards, 1834) with which it has been previously confused.

Le mâle est redécrit et figuré car la seule description connue avait été faite à partir d’un individu gynandromorphe. L’espèce est aussi comparée en détail avec Heteropilumnus fimbriatus (H. Milne Edwards, 1834) avec laquelle elle avait été précédemment confondue.
