Abstract
In a continuing study of the amphipods of Malaysia (Othman & Morino, 1996) a new species of amphipod Crustacea (Gammaridea, Liljeborgiidae) of the genus Listriella Stebbing, 1899, is described. The species was collected from the shores of Sg. Udang, Melaka from the Straits of Melaka at a depth range of 3 to 15 m. The substratum was of a muddy-sand type. The main differences between L. longipalma new species and all other species of the genus recorded are given.References
