Abstract

Fifteen crustacean species including three stomatopods, ten decapod crabs and two palinurid lobsters, are new records from the southern Brazilian coast (27°15′S 48°25′W). All the species had their geographical distribution expanded, highlighted by particularly the mantis shrimp, Neogonodactylus torus (Manning, 1969), which was found more than 1100 km from its previous southern limit and the crab Dromia gouveai Melo & Campos, 1999, which was recently described but not found continuously along the Brazilian coast. These new records reflect the current gap in baseline studies for marine crustaceans in this area, and contribute towards the biogeographical knowledge about this group in the South Atlantic Ocean.
