Remark | I thank Tomoki Kase of the National Museum of Nature and Science, Japan, for obtaining the crustacean material collected by tangle nets in Balicasag Island and making available the holotype of the new species for study. The PANGLAO 2004 Marine Biodiversity Project was collaboration between the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris (Principal Investigator, Philippe Bouchet) and the University of San Carlos, Cebu (Principal Investigator, Danilo Largo). The Principal Investigators thank the Total Foundation for Biodiversity and the Sea, the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the ASEAN Regional Center for Biodiversity Conservation (ARCBC) for funding. The Philippines Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) is acknowledged for issuing a research permit on the material collected by the PANGLAO 2004. I am indebted to Peter K.L. Ng and Swee Hee Tan of the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum, the National University of Singapore, for making available for study the abundant porcellanid material collected in the PANGLAO 2004 Marine Biodiversity Project, and to Tin-Yam Chan of the National Taiwan Ocean University, for kindly taking photographs of E. palauensis and E. turkayi n. sp. used in this study. The manuscript benefited from helpful comments of Roy K. Kropp of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Washington.
