Thirty one species belonging to this genus are described and illustrated in the present paper, including 4 new species and 6 newly recorded species from the China seas as following: S. brevrostrus sp. nov., S. jinqingensis sp. nov., S. liui sp. nov., S. tonkinensis sp. nov., S. biunguiculatus (Stimpson, 1860), S. gracilirostris de Man, 1910, S. iphinoe de Man, 1909, S. lophodactylus Coutiere, 1908, S. modestus de Man, 1909 and S. mortenseni Banners, 1985. A key to 31 species of the genus Synalpheus from China seas is provided.展开更多
