Colour pattern

Unknown.

Distribution

This species occurs in Indonesia (Sulawesi), the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and the Philippines (Palawan).

Remarks

According to Holthuis (1978), C. celebensis can be separated from C. serratirostris by its shorter rostrum reaching to the base of the third segment of the antennular peduncle (vs reaching beyond the end of the antennular peduncle), with less dorsal teeth 17–22 (vs 22–26). Its P2 carpus is longer, 11.9–12.0 as long as wide (vs 8.3–10.9), and also its P2 chela is 5.5–6.6 times as long as wide (vs 3.7–5.1), but its movable finger is 1.2–1.3 times the length of the palm (vs 1.7–1.9), its P3 dactylus has more spiniform setae on the flexor margin in addition to the terminal one, 7–10 (vs 6–7),and its P5 propodus is 15.0–16.2 times as long as wide (vs 18.7–24.0) and 3.7–3.9 times as long as the dactylus (vs 4.5–5.5).

According to Cai & Shokita (2006b), the characters used by Holthuis are not always reliable. On the contrary, the size of the arthrobranch on the base of P 1 in C. serratirostris is highly variable, from very distinct to almost indiscernible, but is totally absent in C. celebensis .

Nevertheless, our study allowed us to find other morphological characters that separate these two species well, such as the number of teeth on the dorsal margin of the rostrum or the length of the P2 carpus.
