The Madagascan freshwater crab genus, Madagapotamon BOTT, 1965,of the family Potamonautidae, is redefined and restricted to only one species, M. humberti BOTT, 1965. A new genus, Skelosophusa, is established for Madagapotamon gollhardi BOTT, 1965,and two new species, Skelosophusa eumeces and S. prolixa, are described. The genus is characterized by the shape of the male abdomen, form of the anterolateral margin and shape of the carapace.
