Oziotelphusa is a genus of freshwater crabs in the family Gecarcinucidae. Its members are found in Sri Lanka and southern India (throughout Kerala and Tamil Nadu and in the southern part of Karnataka). [1] The genus was formerly placed within family Parathelphusidae, but now it is accepted that Parathelphusidae is the junior synonym of Gecarcinucidae. [2] [3]

The genus Oziotelphusa contains fifteen species, [4] all of which are included on the IUCN Red List (LC: least concern; VU: vulnerable; EN: endangered; CR: critically endangered; DD: data deficient):
