Cambarellus Chihuahuae
''Cambarellus'' is a genus of small freshwater crayfish in the family Cambaridae. The 19 species are found in Mexico (subgenus ''Cambarellus'') and the Gulf States of the United States (subgenus ''Pandicambarus''). Among the Mexican species, ''C. areolatus'', ''C. patzcuarensis'', and ''C. prolixus'' are considered seriously threatened by the IUCN, and ''C. alvarezi'' is already extinct. ''C. chihuahuae'' was also believed to be extinct until rediscovered in 2012. ''C. alvarezi'' and four undescribed, extinct ''Cambarellus'' species were restricted to desert spring systems in southwestern Nuevo León; each one shared its habitat with a ''Cyprinodon'' pupfish (these are also fully extinct or extinct in the wild). An orange form of ''C. patzcuarensis'' is regularly seen in the freshwater aquarium trade. Species The genus contains the following species: ;Subgenus ''Cambarellus (Cambarellus)'' *†''Cambarellus alvarezi'' (Villalobos, 1952)Villalobos, A. (1952). Estudios de los ...
