  • The first zoeas of Eualus leptognathus are described and illustrated in detail from laboratory-hatched material. Morphological comparison is made with previous description of this species from Japan. Minute rostrum and two anteroventral denticles behind pterygostomian spine on the carapace readily distinguish the first zoeas of Eualus leptognathus from those of Eualus sinensis, the only known zoeas of Eualus from Korean waters.

  • Two species of the hippolytid shrimps, Lebbeus speciosus and Lebbeus comanthi, are described and illustrated for the first time in Korea. They were collected from the East Sea. Lebbeus speciosus was found in a scallop farm of Jumunjin, Gangneung, and L. comanthi associated with crinoids, was found in Gampo, Gyeongju. The difference between these two related species is in the number of dorsal teeth of the rostrum, five teeth in L. speciosus and a single tooth in L. comanthi. The Korean Lebbeus species has increased to 6 species by the present report. They are L. grandimana, L. polaris, L. unalaskensis, L. groenlandicus, L. speciosus, and L. comanthi.

  • We describe and illustrate two pontoniine shrimps, Cuapetes grandis and Periclimenes ornatus, for the first time in Korea. C. grandis was collected in an artifical reef of Dadae, Geojedo Island by SCUBA diving in 15-20 m depth. This species was found in an oyster within an artificial reef and appeared to be free-living. P. ornatus was collected from Seongsanpo, Jejudo Island by SCUBA diving in 10 m depth. This species had a symbiotic relationship with sea anemone. This record extends their previously known range from southern Japan to the Korean peninsula and the number of known pontoniine species in Korea to four.

  • Two crangonid shrimps, Paracrangon abei Kubo, 1937 and Pontocaris sibogae (De Man, 1918), collected from the northeastern and southeastern waters of Jeju Island, are newly recorded into the Korean fauna. The former is the second species and the latter is the only species of each genus recorded in Korea. Morphological and distributional accounts of these two species are briefly discussed.

  • Alpheus paracrinitus belonging to the diadema group of the genus Alpheus (Decapoda: Caridea: Alpheidae) is reported from Korean waters. This species is distinguished from other Korean congeneric species of the genus Alpheus by the following characteristics: major chela oval in section, lacking marked transverse or longitudinal grooves; movable finger of minor chela balaeniceps; dactylus of third pereopod simple. Korean Alpheidae fauna now consists of 23 species of seven genera.

  • A hippolytid shrimp, Lebbeus grandimana, is described from the southern part of the East Sea and this is the first record of the species in Korea. The genus Lebbeus of the family Hippolytidae currently comprises four species in Korea. A key to identify the four species of the genus Lebbeus from Korean waters is provided.

  • Two hippolytid shrimps, Spirontocaris spinus (Sowerby, 1805) and Lebbeus unalaskensis (Rathbun, 1902) are described on the basis of material collected from the deepwater of the East Sea, Korea at 310-810 m. The former has been incorrectly known as Spirontocaris arcuata Rathbun, 1902 in Korea and the latter is a new member of the Korean fauna. Morphological and distributional accounts of these species are presented with illustrations.

  • The first zoea of R. uritai is described in detail, based on laboratory-hatched material. The first zoea of R. uritai can be distinguished from that of R. conspiciocellus and R. durbanensis by the rostrum downwards, overreaching distal margin of the outer flagellum of the antenna, the endopod of the antenna with short seta as well as long plumose seta distally, and the scale of the antenna six-segmented. The shape of the telson can be a distinguishing character of the first zoea of Rhynchocinetes from that of Cinetorhynchus.
