| - A small collection of palaemonoid shrimps, mainly Pontoniinae, from New Caledonian waters [South Pacific Ocean] of over 100 m depth, has been studied and found to represent 27 taxa, including eight new species of Periclimenes, one new species of both Perclimenaeus and Mesopontonia, and three specimens, including a single ovigerous female, presenting a new genus, AMPHIPONTONIA kanak. Seven species were recorded from New Caledonian waters for the first time. The species of Periclimenaeus, from 370-450 m, represents the greatest depth from which this mainly shallow-water genus has been reported. Two species, a Periclimenes and a Mesopontonia, both new, were found together in association with a hexactinellid sponges host, Phoronema sp., the first reported association of pontoniine shrimps with an hexactinellid host. Another new Periclimenes, with a remarkable pectinate ambulatory dactylus, is also possibly associated with the %22living fossil%22 crinoid, Gymnocrinus richeri. The present study, increases to 57 the number of palaemonoid shrimps known from Indo-West Pacific marine waters exceeding 100 m depth, and clearly indicates that these shrimps are quite well represented in deeper tropical seas. A list of the Indo-West Pacific palaemonoid shrimps known from over 100 m depth, with a new key to the deep-water Indo-West Pacific species of the genus Periclimenes is provided. [The taxa described include: Periclimenes aleator sp. nov., P. brevirostris sp. nov., P. forcipulatus sp. nov., P. leptodacylus sp. nov., P. ordinarius sp. nov., P. pectinipes sp. nov., P. platyrhynchus sp. nov., P. setirostris sp. nov., Periclimenaeuss jeancharcoti sp. nov. and M. monodactylus sp.nov. ].
