摘要

A new hippolytid shrimp species of the genus Hippolyte Leach, 1814, H. singaporensis n. sp., is described and illustrated based on dozens of specimens collected from sublittoral zones of Singapore. Morphologically, the new species is closely related to the Indo-Pacific species of the genus Hippolyte, but differs from them by the structure of the rostrum, the exopod of the third maxilliped, the dactylus of the last three pereiopods, and the position of the hepatic spine.
