            <p> Remarks: The morphology of the present specimen (Fig. 2C–G) matches key characters of  Chlorodiella barbata (Borradaile, 1900) as described by Serène (1984: 257, fig. 170, pl. XXX VI A). Serène noted that this species can be easily distinguished from its congeners by the presence of a tuft of numerous setae on the external surface of the chelae at the articulation of the finger and a relatively simple, truncate tip of G1. This is the first report of this species from Taiwan. </p>

            <p> Remark: The morphology of the present specimens (Fig. 3A, B, D, E) matches the description of  Chlorodiella cytherea (Dana, 1852) (Dana 1852b: 213– 214) . Ng et al. (2017: 87) cited Sasaki (1976) as the first report of  Chl. cytherea from Taiwan. However, Serène (1984) noted  Chl. laevissima , as reported by Miyake (1938), is a junior synonym of  Chl. cytherea . Thus, Miyake (1938), rather than Sasaki (1976), should be considered the first report of this species from Taiwan. </p>

The pleon of the female is generally wider and more elongate-oval in shape compared to that of the male. The vulvae are oval, lack an operculum, and are located on the mesial fourth of sternite 5.</p>
            <p>Distribution: Known only from type locality and Wanlitong, Pingtung County.</p>
            <p> Remarks: The genus  Cyclodius Dana, 1851 was synonymized as a junior name of  Phymodius by A. Milne-Edwards (1863) but was resurrected by Davie (2002) and had been used since (Lasley et al. 2015: 173). The current recognized species within the genus include:  Cyclodius drachi (Guinot, 1964) ,  Cyc. granulatus (Targioni-Tozzetti, 1877) ,  Cyc. granulosus de Man, 1888 ;  Cyc. nitidus (Dana, 1852) ,  Cyc. obscurus (Hombron and Jacquinot, 1846) ,  Cyc. paumotensis (Rathbun, 1907) ,  Cyc. perlatus (Nobili, 1905) , and  Cyc. ungulatus (H. Milne Edwards, 1834) (Lasley et al. 2015: 173) . The present study introduces a new member to the genus. </p>
            <p> The present species exhibits a basal antennal article (Figs. 4C, 6B) similar to that of  Cyclodius Dana, 1851 , where the basal antennal article has a distolateral extension occluding less than half the length of the orbital hiatus (Serène 1984: 233; Ng and Yang 1998: 1693, fig. 5B; Clark and Ng 1999: 354, 359, fig. 6C, tabl. 1; Lai et al. 2011: 433; Lasley et al. 2015: 173, fig. S5B, D). Among known  Cyclodius species , only  Cyc. paumotensis (Rathbun, 1907) shares the characteristic of having the carapace and external surfaces of chelipeds covered in long and short simple, light-colored setae (Figs. 4A, B. E, F, 5C; Serène 1984: 233; Clark and Galil 1993: 1143, figs. 35B, 43A; Lasley et al. 2015: 173, fig. S1C). However,  Cyc. taiwanensis sp. nov. can be distinguished from  Cyc. paumotensis by: 1) weakly defined carapace regions (versus well-defined) (Figs. 4A, B, 5C; Serène 1984: 241, pl. XXXIII D; Clark and Galil 1993: 1145, fig. 35B; Lasley et al. 2015: 173, fig. S1C); 2) an anterolateral margin without apical or accessary spines (versus with apical or accessory spines) (Figs. 4A, B, 5C; Serène 1984: 241, fig. 143d; Clark and Galil 1993: 1145, fig. 10A, 35B; Lasley et al. 2015: 173, fig. S1C); 3) a greater basal width to median length ratio of the 6 th somite and telson (1.63 and 1.80 versus 1.34 and 1.34, respectively) (Figs. 4G, 7C; cf. Rathbun 1907: 52, pl. 2b); and 4) the G1 acutely bent subdistally with a round-tipped distal lobe (versus gently curved subdistally with a sharp distal lobe) (Figs. 5A, B, 7D–F; Serène 1984: 241, fig. 145; Clark and Galil 1993: 1143, fig. 10D–G; Lasley et al. 2015: 173, fig. S3B). </p>
            <p> The G1 structure is considered a reliable distinguishing characteristic among  Cyclodius species (Lasley et al. 2015: 173). Although the G1 form in  Cyc. taiwanensis sp. nov. is unique within the genus, it shows some resemblance to that of  Pilodius luomi Serène, 1971 (=  Pilodius miersi (Ward, 1936)) , as described by Serène (1971: 914–914) (Figs. 5A, B, 7D–F; Serène and Van Luom 1959: 307, fig. 2E, F; Serène 1971: 58; Serène 1984: 245, figs. 153–158; Clark and Galil 1993: 1136–1137; Lasley et al. 2023: 6, fig. 2). Both species exhibit a G1 with a round-tipped distal lobe; however,  Cyc. taiwanensis sp. nov. has a subdistally acutely bent G1, an apical area without short spines, and few long, simple setae subapically; whereas  P. luomi has a G1 that gently curves subdistally, with an apical area featuring many short spines and numerous long, simple setae (Figs. 5A, B, 7D–F; Serène and Van Luom 1959: 307, fig. 2E, F). </p>
            <p> Cyclodius taiwanensis sp. nov. can be further distinguished from  P. luomi by: 1) weakly defined carapace regions (versus well-defined) (Figs. 4A, B, 5C; Serène and Van Luom 1959: 307, pl. 1D); 2) an anterolateral margin without apical or accessary spines (versus with spines) (Figs. 4A, B, 5C; Serène and Van Luom 1959: 307, pl. 1D); 3) dark pigmentation of fingers not expanding onto the palm (versus expanding onto the palm) (Figs. 4A, E, F, 6C; Serène and Van Luom 1959: 307, pl. 1D); and 4) the 6th somite of the male pleon having nearly equal proximal and distal margins length (versus a longer distal margin) (Figs. 4A, E, F, 6C; Serène and Van Luom 1959: 307, fig. 2A). </p>
            <p> Similarly, Cy c.  taiwanensis sp. nov. differs from  P. miersi in these traits: 1) weakly defined carapace regions (versus well-defined) (Figs. 4A, B, 5C; Clark and Galil 1993: 1137, fig. 34A); 2) a deep, V-shaped notch between the frontal lobes (versus a U-shaped indentation) (Figs. 4A, B, 5C; Clark and Galil 1993: 1137, figs. 7A, 34A); 3) an anterolateral margin without spines (versus with spines) (Figs. 4A, B, 5C; Serène and Van Luom 1958: 93: 307; Clark and Galil 1993: 1137, figs. 7B, 34A); 4) dark pigmentation of fingers not expanding onto the palm (versus expanding) (Figs. 4A, E, F, 6C; Serène and Van Luom 1958: 93; Clark and Galil 1993: 1137, fig. 34A); 5) ambulatory legs lacking dactyl-propodal locks (versus present) (Figs. 4H, 6D; Clark and Galil 1993: 1137, fig. 7C); and 6) a G1 subdistally bent acutely, with an apical area without short spines and few subapical setae (versus gently curving subdistally, with an apical area containing many short spines and numerous subapical setae) (Figs. 5A, B, 7D–F; Clark and Galil 1993: 1137, fig. 7D–F). </p>

            <p> Etisus sp. A (Fig. 13A–H) </p>
            <p>Material examined: 1 ñ, NMNS 8772-41, 5.2 × 3.6, Jialulan, Taitung County, coll. Y.-W. Tzeng, 23 July 2013.</p>
            <p>Description: Carapace (Fig. 13A–C) transversely ovate, width to length ratio about 1.45, dorsal area slightly convex transversely, longitudinally; dorsal surface well covered by microscopic granules, except 3M, 4M, L, P, R regions, stout long setae scattered at anterior regions and lined with grooves of posterior regions; regions well defined, divided by wide, deep grooves; subhepatic, pterygostomial regions granulate, long setae scattered. Front strongly advanced, about 0.33 times as long as carapace width, slightly deflexed ventrally, margin granulate, outer angles well marked and separated by V-shaped notch from orbital rim; divided into 2 lobes by shallow V-shaped notch, continuing posteriorly as deep median groove on dorsal carapace, each lobe with 2 subequal lobules.

            <p>Thoracic sternum margins cristate; sternites 1, 2 fused, external surface smooth; sternites 2, 3 and 3, 4 separated by deep and shallow sutures, respectively; sternite 4 with row of long setae at anterior margin, lateral margins clearly convex; sutures 4/5, 5/6 joining toward median longitudinal axis of thoracic sternum; vulvae oval, without operculum, located mesial third of sternite 5.</p>
            <p>Left cheliped (Fig. 13E, F) moderately robust. Meri moderate long, distal end clearly extending beyond carapace anterolateral margin in dorsal view. Carpi dorsal margin granulate, subdistal end with large tubercle, internal distal angle with one row of 3 small spines. Palm dorsal margin granulate, with small tubercle proximally, external surface granules compacted, forming perpendicular lines or stripes, proximal end of lower margin with large acetabulum-like structure, distal end of lower margin with shallow groove extending anteriorly to middle of pollex. Finger thick, tips rounded; dactylus brownish in alcohol except distal end, dorsal margin with granulate submargin crests, forming longitudinal groove toward medial region of dorsal margin, distal area moderately recurved, external surface lower submargin with longitudinal shallow groove, extending two-thirds of dactylus from proximal end, three large teeth on proximal end of cutting edge, 2 thin, blade-like low teeth on distal end of cutting edge; pollex beige in alcohol, proximal end of cutting edge with 2 small, low teeth and 3 larger blunt teeth, distal end with 2 medium-sized low teeth.</p>
            <p>Ambulatory legs (Fig. 13G) flattened, broad, moderate in length, P2, P3 longest, coxa-to-dactylus length about 0.94 times carapace width, P5 shortest, coxa-to-dactylus length about 0.81 times carapace width; surfaces entirely smooth, anterior margin of meri spinose, anterior margin of carpi, propodi, dactyli granulate, anterior submargin of meri, carpi, propodi, dactyli lined with many short and long setae, posterior margin of meri, carpi smooth, submargin lined with short and long setae, posterior margins of propodi denticulate, submargin lined with short and long setae, posterior margins of dactyli spinose, with single large tubercle posterior to chitinous claw, single-tipped.

            <p>Pleon (Fig. 13H) moderate long relative to thoracic sternum, tip of telson reaching anterior margin of sternite 4; somites 1, 2 trapezoidal, much wider than long; somites 3–5 subrectangular, not fused, subequal in width, combined lateral margin gently convex; somite 6 subrectangular, much wider than long, angles rounded, lateral margins convex; telson subtriangular, angles rounded, basal width about 1.5 times median length.</p>
            <p>Distribution: Known only from the coast of East Taiwan.</p>
            <p> Remarks: Interestingly,  Etisus sp. A possesses an acetabulum-like structure on external, lower proximal margin of the propodus of the left chela (Fig. 13F). This feature might be a scar from a previous injury. The morphology of  Etisus sp. A is somewhat resembles that of  E. anaglyptus (H. Milne Edwards, 1834) , which has subquadrate frontal lobes extending beyond the supraorbital angles and separated by a deep V-shaped notch (Fig. 13A, B; A. Milne-Edwards 1873: 80 (4), pl. 12 (1), fig. 3; Serène 1984: 227–228, pl. XXXII A, E). However,  Etisus sp. A differs from  E. anaglyptus in the following ways: 1) frontal lobes extending well beyond the supraorbital angles (versus slightly beyond); 2) a greater fronto-orbital to carapace width ratio (0.33 versus 0.19); 3) anterolateral tooth N, T and S (2 nd to 4 th) with blunt-tipped (versus acute tips); and 4) outer edge of ambulatory legs covered in granules (versus strong spines) (Fig. 13A, B, G; Serène 1984: 228, pl. XXXII A). More adult male and female specimens are needed to determine the true identity of this distinct  Etisus species. The current description is based on a single juvenile female specimen, and it remains uncertain whether there are variations between sexes or ontogenetic morphological changes. </p>

            <p>Female morphology: The female (Figs. 14B, D, F, H, 15E–H, 16C) is morphologically similar to the male in most body parts, with differences in the carapace, sexual characters, and chelipeds. The female’s carapace is less concave compared to that of the male. The front of the female shows only traces of submedian lobules and is slightly retreated laterally, whereas the male has broader submedian lobules that are moderately retreated. The female's pleon is generally wider and more triangular than the male’s. Additionally, the sternopleonal cavity of the female is wider but shallower. The vulvae are oval and located on the mesial third of sternite 5. The female’s chelipeds are less robust and nearly equal in size, in contrast to the male’s, which are robust and subequal. The dactylus of both chelae in the female is slightly recurved distally, leaving a smaller gap when close, whereas in the male, it is strongly recurved and leaves a larger gap.</p>
            <p>Distribution: Known only from the Liuqiu Island, offshore from southwestern Taiwan.</p>
            <p> Remarks: Of the known congeners,  Etisus sp. B shares morphological similarities with  E. demani Odhner, 1925 and  E. odhneri Takeda, 1971 , notably in the following features: 1) a bi-lobed front separated by a median V-shaped notch with frontal lobes being slightly sinuous and fringes with pearly granules; 2) intercalated denticles between the anterolateral lobes of the carapace; and 3) strongly recurved distal fingers of chelipeds (Figs. 14A–D, 15A–D; Gordon 1941: 135–136, fig. 9c; Guinot 1964b: 51, 53, figs. 19, pl. VI, fig. 1; Takeda 1971: 193– 195, pl. 3, figs. 1–2; Serène 1984: 219, 223). However,  Etisus sp. B can be distinguished from  E. demani by the following: 1) a smaller carapace width/length ratio (1.38 versus 1.46–1.48) (Fig. 14A–D; Guinot 1964b: 51, fig. 19, pl. VI, fig. 1); 2) a single-rimmed front fringed with one row of pearly granules (versus double-rimmed with two rows of pearly granules) (Fig. 14A–D; Gordon 1941: 134, fig. 9d); 3) a granulate supraorbital margin with one fissure (versus smooth and with two fissures) (Fig. 14C–D; Gordon 1941: 134, fig. 9d; Guinot 1964b: 51, figs. 19, pl. VI, fig. 1); 4) a shallow, longitudinal groove dividing the middle of the 3M region in males (versus undivided) (Fig. 14A, C; Guinot 1964b: 51, figs. 19, pl. VI, fig. 1); 5) three uneven-sized teeth on the proximal half of the major chela’s dactylus cutting edge (versus two) (Fig. 15A–H; Gordon 1941: 134, fig. 9c); 6) two rows of teeth on the proximal cutting edge of the major chela’s pollex, with the outer and inner rows featuring three uneven conical teeth and one small teeth, respectively (versus with one row of one large and several minute teeth) (Fig. 15B, D, F, H; Gordon 1941: 134, fig. 9c); 7) a mosaic of granules on upper region and two rows of small conical granules on lower region of the minor chela’s palm (versus smooth) (Fig. 15C; Gordon 1941: 134, fig. 9c); 8) conical granules on the outer margins of the fourth ambulatory leg (versus strong spines) and a smooth inner margin on the fourth leg’s merus (versus spines) (Fig. 16A; Gordon 1941: 134, fig. 9a); 9) a smaller dactylus width/length ratio of the fourth ambulatory leg (0.33 versus 0.43) (Fig. 16A; Gordon 1941: 134, fig. 9a); 10) a smaller ischium width/length ratio of the third maxilliped (1.13 versus 1.48) (Fig. 16B–D; Guinot 1964b: 53, fig. 24, pl. VI, fig. 1); 11) a fully granulated outer surface of the third maxilliped’s merus and palp (versus smooth) (Fig. 16B– D; Guinot 1964b: 53, fig. 24, pl. VI, fig. 1); and 12) a strongly curved posteroventrally G1 distal part and subapex with eight short, stout setae (versus moderately curved with five long and two short setae) (Fig. 16E, F; Gordon 1941: 135, fig. 10d; Takeda 1971: 192, fig. 3C, D; Serène 1984: 222, fig. 140). </p>
            <p> Etisus sp. B differs from  E. odhneri by: 1) broader submedian lobules on the front, single-rimmed with one row of pearly granules (versus feeble submedian lobules and double-rimmed with two rows) (Fig. 14A–D; Takeda 1971: 193, 209, pl. 3); 2) a divided middle 3M region by a shallow, longitudinal groove (versus undivided) (Fig. 14C; Takeda 1971: 193, 209, pl. 3, fig. 1); 3) a granulate supraorbital margin with one fissure (versus with two notches) (Fig. 15A–H; Takeda 1971: 193, 209, pl. 3, fig. 1); 4) three uneven teeth on the proximal cutting edge of the major chela’s dactylus (versus two) (Fig. 15A–H; Takeda 1971: 194, 209, pl. 3, fig. 2); 5) two rows of teeth on the major chela’s pollex, with the outer and inner rows having three uneven sized conical teeth and one small teeth </p>
            <p> (versus one row and four uneven teeth) (Fig. 15B, D, F, H; Takeda 1971: 194, 209, pl. 3, fig. 2); and 6) a strongly curved posteroventrally G1 distal area and a spatulate apex (versus moderately curved) (Fig. 16E, F; Takeda 1971: 192, fig. 3E–F; Serène 1984: 222, fig. 141). The described characteristics of  Etisus sp. B are based on juvenile specimens, leaving the possibility of ontogenetic morphological changes as the species matures. </p>

            <p>Material examined: 1 ò 1 ñ, NMNS 8772- 45–46, 3.8–5.1 × 2.3–3.3, Shanfu, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, 3–4 May 2007; 1 ò, NMNS 8772-47, 5.8 × 3.5, Shanfu, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, 24 October 2008; 1 ñ, NMNS 8772-48, 8.5 × 5.4, Wanlitong, Pingtung County, 13 November 2009.</p>
            <p>Distribution: Indo-West Pacific; Fiji and Samoa (Dana 1852b; Serène 1984).</p>
            <p> R e m a r k s: P s a u m i s Kossmann, 1 8 7 7 was previously classified within the subfamily  Actaeinae (Serène 1984: 92–94) . However, Lai et al. (2011) proposed that this genus belongs to the subfamily  Euxanthinae Alcock, 1898 based on both morphological and molecular evidence. Serène (1984: 129) reinstated the genus, following discussions on the identification of  A. cavipes (Dana, 1852) by Guinot (1976: 203). </p>
            <p> The genus is a small taxonomic group represented by only two species:  P. cavipes (Dana, 1852) (type locality: Fiji and Samoa) and  P. fossulata (Girard, 1859) (type locality: Red Sea) (Serène 1984). While Serène (1984: 130) synonymized  P. fossulata as junior name of  P. cavipes, Ng et al. (2008) considered  P. fossulata as a valid species. Alcock (1898: 148) distinguished  Actaea fossulata (Girard, 1859) (=  P. fossulata ) (collection location: Great Coco Island and East Island, Andamans) from  P. cavipes based on differences in the morphology of the front projections, carapace lobes, chelipeds, and ambulatory legs. </p>
            <p> The morphology of the current species (Fig. 2B) matches with diagnosis features of  Psaumis cavipes , which include numerous small cavities on the dorsal carapace and ambulatory legs, and three distinct cavities on the suborbital and subhepatic regions (Serène 1984: 129). </p>

            <p>Material examined: 1 ñ, NMNS 8772-57, 6.1 × 4.2, Shanfu, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, 4 May 2007.</p>
            <p>Distribution: Indo-Pacific (Guinot 1968).</p>
            <p> Remarks: Guinot (1968) identified six species within the genus  Macromedaeus :  M. crassimanus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1867) ,  M. demani (Odhner, 1925) ,  M. distinguendus (De Haan, 1835) ,  M. nudipes (A. Milne-Edwards, 1867) ,  M. quinquedentatus (Krauss, 1843) and  M. voeltzkowii (Lenz, 1905) . Recently, two additional species,  M. adelus Mendoza, 2021 and  M. hainanensis Yuan, Jiang and Sha, 2022 , have been described, increasing the total to eight. However,  M. hainanensis appears morphological similar to  M. adelus , and J.C.E. Mendoza suggested that these two species are synonymous, with  M. adelus being the senior synonym according to the principle of priority (ICZN Article 23). Mendoza based this conclusion on a careful comparison of the descriptions and illustrations provided by Yuan et al. (2022) and the type material of  M. adelus . Key diagnostic features included the four broadly triangular teeth on the carapace anterolateral margin, the absence of lateral projections on the external margin of the ambulatory carpi, and the morphology of the G1 (e.g., overall shape, distal tapering, and arrangement of subdistal spiniform setae). Additionally, the female paratype of  M. hainanensis resembled the female type specimens of  M. adelus . Most of the type series of  M. hainanensis comprised immature or subadult individuals with carapace widths of less than 10 mm, showing no significant morphological differences from similarly sized specimens of  M. adelus (Hsueh, pers. comm.). </p>
            <p> The current specimen (Fig. 17F) matches the key characteristics of  M. crassimanus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1867) : five teeth on the anterolateral margins, a fronto-orbital width distinctly less than half the greatest carapace width, and carapace regions separated by broad, shallow furrows (Serène 1984: 177, pl. XXV B).  Macromedaeus crassimanus was first reported in Taiwan by Ho et al. (2000). This study provides the second record of this species, now from an offshore island in southwestern Taiwan. </p>

            <p>Distribution: Known only from the coast of East Taiwan.</p>
            <p> Remarks: The morphology of  Macromedaeus sp. A resembles that of  M. adelus Mendoza, 2021 ,  M. distinguendus (De Haan, 1835) , and  M. voeltzkowi (Lenz, 1905) , particularly in having four teeth on the anterolateral margins of the carapace (Fig. 18A, B; Serène 1984: 178, pl. XXV F; Mendoza 2021: 470, 474, figs. 5A, 7A; Yuan et al. 2022: 8, 10, 16, figs. 3A, B, 4A, B, 8A, B). However,  Macromedaeus sp. A can be distinguished from  M. adelus by the following features: 1) smaller carapace width/length ratio (1.30–1.39 versus mean 1.59; Mendoza 2021: 469); 2) carapace regions are weakly defined and separated by shallow grooves (versus well-defined, separated by deep, acute furrows) (Fig. 18A, B; Mendoza 2021: 471–472, fig. 5A); 3) the dorsal carapace region 6L is divided by an oblique furrow (versus undivided) (Fig. 18A, B; Mendoza 2021: 471–472, fig. 5A); 4) anterior margin of lobes is not separated from preorbital tooth by a deep notch (versus separated by a deep notch, appearing as a small fossa from an anterior view) (Fig. 18C; Mendoza 2021: 471–472, figs. 5A, 6A); 5) outer surface of the third maxilliped is densely covered with large granules (versus micro granules) (Fig. 19A, B; Mendoza 2021: 472, fig. 6B); 6) pigmentation of the pollex does not extend onto palm (versus extending onto palm) (Fig. 18E–H; Mendoza 2021: 470, fig. 5G, H); 7) greater length/width ratio of P5 merus (3.43 versus 2.11) (cf. Mendoza 2021: 470, fig. 5F); and 8) presence of a row of denticle teeth on the lower margin of P5 dactylus and a large tooth behind the claw (versus few scattered submarginal denticle teeth and a large tooth behind the claw) (Fig. 19C; Mendoza 2021: 472, fig. 6G).  Macromedaeus sp. A differs from  M. distinguendus by: 1) front submedian lobules divided by a notch (versus undivided) (Fig. 18A, B; Yuan et al. 2022: 11, 16, figs. 5B, 8B); 2) dorsal carapace region 6L divided by an oblique furrow (versus entire) (Fig. 18C; Serène 1984: 177; Yuan et al. 2022: 16, fig. 8A, B); 3) pollex pigmentation not extending onto the palm (versus extending) (Fig. 18E–H; Yuan et al. 2022: 16, fig. 8E, F); 4) row of denticle teeth present on the upper margin of P5 merus (versus absent) (Fig. 19C; Yuan et al. 2022: 12, fig. 6B); 5) greater length/width ratio of P5 dactylus (3.43 versus 2.50) (Fig. 19C; c.f. Yuan et al. 2022: 12, fig. 6B); and 6) row of denticle teeth on the lower margin of P5 dactylus and a large tooth behind the claw (versus absent) (Fig. 18E–H; Yuan et al. 2022: 12, fig. 6B). Compared to  M. voeltzkowi ,  Macromedaeus sp. A has: 1) carapace regions weakly defined and separated by shallow grooves (versus well-defined, divided by deep, acute furrows) (Fig. 18A, B; Barnard 1950: 226, fig. 41d; Serène 1984: 177, pl. XXV F); 2) dorsal carapace region 6L divided by an oblique furrow (versus transverse furrow) (Fig. 18C; Barnard 1950: 226, fig. 41d; Serène 1984: 177, pl. XXV F); 3) dorsal surface covered by microscopic granules (versus irregularly granular) (Fig. 18A, B; Barnard 1950: 226, fig. 41d; Serène 1984: 177, pl. XXV F); and 4) pollex pigmentation not extending onto the palm (versus extending) (Fig. 18E–H; Lenz 1905: 353, pl. XLVII 6a). The present morphological characters observations are based on juvenile female specimens. Potential sexbased variations or ontogenetic changes in this species remain unclear. </p>

            <p>Material examined: 2 ò, NMNS 8772-61, 8.8–9.8 × 5.9–6.5, Shadao, Hengchun Township, Pingtung County, coll. H.- T. Hung, 17 October, 2020.</p>
            <p>Distribution: Indo-Pacific (Dai and Yang 1991).</p>
            <p> Remarks: The morphology of the present specimen (Fig. 17H) aligns with the description of  Paraxanthias notatus (Dana, 1852) provided by Dai and Yang (1991: 299, pl. 38 (4)). Collection records from Taiwan suggest that the distribution of this species is predominantly confined to the southern tip of Taiwan and nearby offshore islands (Ng et al. 2017). </p>
