The genera Tenupedunculus Schultz, 1982 and Stenobermuda Schultz, 1979 are recorded for the first time from beyond the Southern Ocean, at the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Tenupedunculusserrulatussp. n. and Stenobermudawaroogasp. n. are described from Heron Island and Lizard Island respectively, both in the Great Barrier Reef. The genus Tenupedunculus is revised and a new diagnosis presented, with Tenupedunculusvirginale Schultz, 1982, T.pulchrum (Schultz, 1982), and T.serrulatussp. n. being retained within the genus, and the remaining species here regarded as Stenetriidaeincertae sedis (eight species).

Two new species of symbiotic hippolytid shrimps of the genus Alcyonohippolyte Marin, Okuno & Chan, 2010 are described from Lizard Island, the Great Barrier Reef of Australia. Alcyonohippolyte tenuicarpus sp. nov. is associated with xeniid soft coral of the genus Heteroxenia Kolliker, 1874 and differs from the congeners by a long rostrum greatly exceeding antennular peduncle and slender carpal segments of pereiopod II. Alcyonohippolyte tubiporae sp. nov. is associated with organ pipe coral of the genus Tubipora Linnaeus, 1758, possibly T. musica Linnaeus, 1758 (Alcyonacea: Tubiporidae), and differs from the congeners by equal distal and proximal carpal segments of pereiopod II. Both species can be clearly separated from the congeners ecologically and by coloration.

First Time

The asellote family Gnathostenetroididae Kussakin, 1967 is reported for the first time from Australian waters. Four new species of Gnathostenetroides Amar, 1957 from the Great Barrier Reef are described. The genus Maresiella Fresi and Scipione, 1980 is here placed into synonymy with Gnathostenetroides and a new diagnosis is given for Gnathostenetroides together with a key to the 12 species and a map of the distribution of the genus. The genus Dignatroides Stock and Vonk, 1990 is placed into synonymy with Caecostenetroides Fresi and Schiecke, 1968, and a new composition of the family Gnathostenetroididae, the updated diagnosis and a key to the three genera are provided.

Two New Species

Two new species of cyproideid amphipods, Cyproidea cobia, sp. nov. and Narapheonoides lowryi, sp. nov., are described from the Great Barrier Reef. Cyproidea cobia, sp. nov., is characterized by gnathopod 1 having a rectolinear basis and gnathopod 2 ischium posterior process not developed. Narapheonoides lowryi, sp. nov., differs from its congeners in that the basis in both pereopods 6 and 7 has a posterodistal flange and the pereopod 6 basis is broader. With the recently described Gbroidea dingaalana Lowry & Azman, 2008, collected from Lizard Island, this study brings the number of known cyproideid amphipods from the Great Barrier Reef to three species.

Two New Species

The “Hamopontonia corallicola” Bruce, 1970 species complex is partly revised. The type species of the genus, H. corallicolaBruce, 1970, is redescribed based on material from Northern Australia. Additionally, two new species of the genus associatedwith hard corals are described from Lizard Island, the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Hamopontonia fungicola sp. nov. isassociated with fungiid coral Heliofungia actiniformis (Quoy & Gaimard, 1833) and H. physogyra sp. nov. is associated withcaryophyllid coral Physogyra lichtensteini Milne-Edwards & Haime, 1851. Both species clearly differ from their congeners indistinctive coloration and morphological features. A differential key and remarks on coloration of all described species of the genus are provided.
