Abstract

The genus Sadayoshia Baba, 1969 of the family Galatheidae contains five species, all Indo-Pacific. Only one, S. ed ward si (Miers), was previously recorded from the Indian Ocean. Three male specimens, obtained by the International Indian Ocean Expedition (IIOE) 1963-1964, provide a new Indian Ocean record for Sadayoshia acroporae Baba known only from the type locality: Ryukyu Islands (Baba, 1972: 43). The specimens at hand agree well with the holotype except in some details which are noted in the following account.
