Abstract
Pylopaguropsis lemaitrei, new species, is described from French Polynesia. It closely resembles P. lewinsohni McLaughlin & Haig, 1989, in having three longitudinal sulci on the lateral face of the propodus of the right third pereopod. The new species is easily distinguished from the latter by the coloration and morphology of the chelipeds, ambulatory pereopods and telson. Coloration of the chelipeds and ambulatory pereopods of the new species is very similar to that of P. keijii McLaughlin & Haig, 1989. However, coloration of the ocular peduncles and antennas and morphology of the right third pereopod separate the new species from P. keijii.
