Corallana mishrai sp. nov. collected from dead mangrove roots at Kodiyaghat, South Andaman, Andaman Islands, India is described and illustrated in detail. Corallana mishrai sp. nov. the first definitive record of the genus from India, is characterized by: frontal lamina with short straight (or very weakly convex) lateral margins and the anterior margin forming a strong acute median point; pleotelson length 0.76 greatest width, posterior margin with 5 robust setae; uropodal exopod 7 times longer than greatest width, extending beyond endopod by one fourth of its length; endopod lateral margin slightly convex with 4 RS and PMS, apex forms a slightly obtuse angle with long simple setae, mesial margin weakly convex with 2 RS and PMS; mandible bidentate; transverse row of 6 tubercles present on pereonite 1 and pleonites 2, 3 and 4 lacking lateral tubercles. The status of the genus and its species are reviewed, and two species are transferred to new combinations: Argathona kulai (Bruce, 1982) comb. nov. and Tachaea bidentata (Jones et al. 1983) comb. nov.
来自印度安达曼群岛南安达曼科迪雅加特死红树林根的珊瑚娜·米什拉 sp. nov. 被详细描述和说明。珊瑚娜·米什拉 sp. nov. 是印度该属的第一个明确记录,其特征为:额片的侧面边缘短而直(或非常弱的凸),前缘形成一个强烈的锐角;尾节长度为最大宽度的 0.76,后缘有 5 根粗壮的刚毛;尾肢外肢比最大宽度长 7 倍,超出内肢的四分之一长度;内肢的外侧边缘略微凸起,有 4 根 RS 和 PMS,顶端与长而简单的刚毛形成一个稍钝的角,内侧边缘略微凸起,有 2 根 RS 和 PMS;颚片双齿;体节 1 和胸节 2、3 和 4 上有 6 个结节的横行,缺乏侧结节。该属及其物种的状况得到了审查,两个物种被转移到新的组合中:Kulai 的 Argathona(Bruce,1982)comb. nov. 和 Tachaea 的 bidentata(Jones 等人,1983)comb. nov.。
