Alpheopsis yaldwyni Banner & Banner, 1973

This shrimp was found and photographed by John and Lynette Flynn at Majuro Atoll. Specimens from Australia (Gosliner et al (2016)) and Indonesia (Anker et al (2015)) have the same pattern although the colors of the bands are bright red rather than maroon. The Majuro individual could be a slight variation from the northeastern edge of its range.
