Abstract
Continuous taxonomic study on shrimps collected from Korean waters revealed that an alpheid shrimp, Alpheus albatrossae occurs in Korean waters. This species belongs to the macrocheles group of the genus Alpheus. This species is distinguished from other known species of the genus Alpheus in Korea by having orbital teeth and palm of large chela with three heavy longitudinal ridges and grooves terminating distally in (1) a heavy tooth above dactylar articulation, (2) the adhesive plaque, and (3) a heavy tooth below dactylar articulation. Korean Alpheidae fauna now consists of 21 species of seven genera.
