The porcelain crab, Pseudoporcellanella manoliensis Sankarankutty, 1961 was collected in East Lampung, Indonesia, and the species is recorded from Indonesian waters for the first time. Pseudoporcellanella manoliensis was previously known from India, Malaysia, Singapore, Cambodia, and the South China Sea. The present specimens were caught by a fisherman as by-catch of the blue swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus) in April and June 2017. Pseudoporcellanella manoliensis was found clinging to a sea pen (Scytalium sp.) taken along the net. Three males and three ovigerous females each carrying approximately 600 eggs were found. The occurrence of the species in Indonesia enhances the marine crustacean diversity list of tropical Indo-West Pacific waters.
Porculanski rak Pseudoporcellanella manoliensis Sankarankutty, 1961 prikupljen je na području istočnog Lampunga u Indoneziji te je vrsta zabilježena po prvi puta u indonezijskim vodama. Vrsta je otprije poznata za Indiju, Maleziju, Singapur, Kambodžu i Južno kinesko more. Primjerci su prikupljeni kao usputni ulov tijekom lova na plavog raka plivača (Portunus pelagicus) u travnju i lipnju 2017. Rak Pseudoporcellanella manoliensis je pronađen na morskom percu (Scytalium sp.) kojeg je zahvatila mreža. Nađena su tri mužjaka i tri ženke, svaka s otprilike po 600 jajašaca. Prisutnost vrste u Indoneziji pridonosi povećanju raznolikosti morskih rakova tropskog Indo-Zapadnopacifičkog mora.
