Abstract
The new species Iphimedia schminkei is described from Lizard Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. On pereonite 7 and pleonites 1-3 it has a keel-like elevation, short, paired dorsal processes and fringes of microtrichs on the posterior segmental margins. The maxilla 1 palp is longer than the outer plate and the pereopod 7 basis has 2 pointed processes on the posterior margin and an additional small tooth posteroventrally.References
