Abstract

Three species of the genus Paracaridina (family Atyidae) are reported from Hunan Province, china, including P. chenxiensis sp. nov. A partial re-description of the type species of Paracaridina, P. longispina (Guo & He, 1992) is provided, as is a revised diagnosis of the genus. Caridina guizhouensis (Liang & Yan, 1986) is removed to Paracaridina and recorded for the first time from hunan.
