Pistol shrimps Alpheus Fabricius, 1798 generally inhabit shallow
depths of coral regions. A recent survey conducted at the Gulf of
Mannar and Lakshadweep islands provided two species of Alpheus
shrimps from the intertidal zone at 0.5 to 15 m depths. The study
revealed that Alpheus soror Bruce, 1999 is a new report to the Gulf
of Mannar and A. lottini Guérin, 1830 [in Guérin, 1829-1830] found
in stony coral of genus Pocillopora sp. is a new report to
Lakshadweep waters. The major intra and interspecific characters of
these two species are described and discussed in detail.
