contents A new species of Guinot, 1976 (Crustacea, Brachyura, Xanthidae) from the coral reefs of the South China Sea. Ziming, Yuan Wei, Jiang Zhongli, Sha A new xanthid species of Guinot, 1976, is described from the coral reefs of the Xisha and Nansha Islands in the South China Sea. The new species, , closely resembles (Krauss, 1843) but can be distinguished mainly by its closer proximity of the outer orbital angle and anterolateral margin, which lacks an accessory lobe, a broader and non-protruding front, and notable differences in live coloration and size. Molecular analysis of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) sequences further corroborates the validity of this new species. An updated identification key for is provided.
