Description
Summary:Abstract A little known pandalid shrimp, Pandalopsis lamelligera (Brandt, 1851) is redescribed and illustrated on the basis of six topotypic specimens from Shantar Islands, northern Okhotsk Sea. The presence of a small patch of short setae near the posterodorsal margin of the carapace suggests close relationship of this species to P. japonica Balss and P. ochotensis Kobjakova. Key to the species of the genus presented by Komai (1994) is partially revised.
