59 species of palaemonoid shrimps (Crustacea, Decapoda) are recorded from Hansa Bay, along the northern coastline of Papua New Guinea. The present study raises the total number of marine palaemonoid shrimp species from Hansa Bay to 76, of which 71 species belong to the subfamily Pontoniinae The total number for Papua New Guinea is now raised from 13 at the beginning of the century and 20 prior to the start of studies in Hansa Bay to a total of 82 species. |
