Potamon is a genus of freshwater or semiterrestrial crabs mainly found from Southern Europe through the Middle East, and as far east as north-western India.[2] The only exception is the North African P. algeriense, which also is the only potamid of mainland Africa. Twenty species are currently recognised.[1][3][4] These crabs are omnivores that have a broad ecological tolerance. The adult Potaman reach up to 50 mm in size during their 10-12 year life span.
