Abstract
A new palaemonid shrimp genus, Ngankeecaris gen. nov. is established for two western Pacific species, Periclimenes acanthimerus Bruce, 2006 and P. dardanicola Bruce & Okuno, 2006 (type species). The present new genus can be distinguished from other marine palaemonid genera by the presence of the short transvers rows of spinulate tubercles on the ventral surfaces of ischium, merus, carpus and palm of the second pereiopod. The type species, N. dardanicola (Bruce & Okuno, 2006) comb. nov. is recorded from the Ryukyu Islands, southwestern Japan for the first time.
