- Abstract
The reef lobster fauna of Christmas Island and Cocos (Keeling) Islands in the eastern Indian Ocean is documented. Five species of palinurids, one species of scyllarid and one species of enoplometopid are recorded from these islands. Two species, Palinurellus wieneckii (De Man, 1881) (Palinuridae) and Enoplometopus voigtmanni Türkay, 1989 (Enoplometopidae) are new records for Christmas Island and Australia. The taxonomy of Parribaccus antarcticus (Lund, 1793) is also discussed.
