A new species of hippolytid shrimp, Hippolyte ngi n. sp., is described and illustrated based on specimens collected from the Indo-West Pacific region. The new species clearly belongs to the ‘Hippolyte ventricosa H. Milne Edwards, 1837’ species complex, but is distinguished from its congeners by the dactylus of the last three pereiopods, the position of the hepatic spine, the proportions of the segments of the antennular peduncle, and other subtle but constant features.

Antennular Peduncle

A new species of Diogenes Dana, 1851, Diogenes bispinatus sp. nov., is described from the South China Sea. It is closely allied to Diogenes dorotheae Morgan & Forest, 1991 and D. patae Asakura & Godwin, 2006, but it morphologically differs from the latter in the length of the antennular peduncle, the number of spines on the ocular acicle, the shape of the antennal acicle and the number of spines, the shape of the palm of left cheliped and telson. A key to the species of Diogenes from China seas is provided.

A New Species

Abstract A new species of the copepod genus Stygiopontius is described based on samples from a cold seep in northeastern South China Sea southwest to Taiwan, which were collected by the ROV Faxian with its mother vessel R/V Kexue in September 2017. The copepods were obtained by washing Shinkaia crosnieri Baba & Williams, 1998 (Decapoda: Munidopsidae) caught at a depth of 1124 m. The new species can be distinguished from its congeners by the combination of the following characteristics: caudal rami about 3.5 times as long as wide; basis of maxilliped with plumose seta, endopodal claw of maxilliped stout, with a row of fine spinules on inner margin; coxa of leg 1 with one inner seta; basis of leg 1 with stout spine exceeding to end of first endopodal segment; second endopodal segment of female leg 4 with pointed process; third exopodal segment of leg 4 with three outer spines. This is the first record of a Stygiopontius species from a cold seep.

A New Species

Grateloupia tenuisWang et Luan sp. nov. is a new species described from Lingshui, Hainan Province, South China Sea. Based on the external form and internal structure, combined withrbcL gene sequence analysis,Grateloupia tenuisis distinct from otherGrateloupiaspecies as follows: (1) thalli is slippery and cartilaginous in texture; possess fewer branches, relatively slight main axes, and two or three dichotomous branches; (2) cortex is 5-6 layers; medulla is solid when young, but hollow in old branches; reproductive structures are dispersed in main axes of thalli and lower portions of branchlets; exhibitsGrateloupia-type auxiliary cell ampullae; (3) the four studiedG. tenuissequences were positioned in a largeGrateloupiaclade of Halymeniaceae, which included sister group generitypeG. filicinawith 68 bp differences;G. tenuiswas determined to be a sister taxon to theG. catenata,G. ramosissima,G. orientalis, andG. filiformissubclade. The pairwise distances betweenG. tenuisand these species were 39 to 50 bp. The sequences ofG. tenuisdiffered by 81–108 bp from the sequences of other samples inGrateloupia; there are 114–133 bp changes betweenG. tenuisand other genera of Halymeniaceae. In final analysis, we consideredGrateloupia tenuisWang et Luan sp. nov. to be a new species of genusGrateloupia.

A New Species

A new species, Michaelcallianassa sinica, from the Beibu Gulf (Tonkin Gulf), northern South China Sea, is described and illustrated. The new species is readily distinguished from M. indica Sakai, 2002, the type species of the genus, by its short uropodal endopod and exopod, and elongated carpus of the minor cheliped.
