Original – Original – A male freshwater crab of the species Nanhaipotamon hongkongense in a stream on Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong.
Reason
the image quality is satisfactory, resolution high, and it is the lead picture on the Nanhaipotamon hongkongense page, also argueably the most stunning picture on the Nanhaipotamon page. The typical coloration pattern of male crabs is clearly visible and all important body features of the crab can be seen on the image. Moreover, the photo was taken in the crabs's natural habitat. The image has been deleted from Wikipedia recently because of copyright issues which have been solved in the meantime, see Wikimedia undeletion request.

  • Comment: I'd much rather see this as the lead image in an article about the species than a gallery image in an article about the genus. Josh Milburn (talk) 16:26, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. The picture doesn't blow my mind, but it adds a lot to a nice little article, and it's an obscure species from an under-represented part of the world. There's a lot to like. Josh Milburn (talk) 16:24, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
