Material examined. 1 female (pocl 5.5), Stn. Dive 14, Ebi-ana, 26°17.547´N 126°47.771´E, depth 10 m, 1 Nov. 2009, NTOU M01140 View Materials ; 1 ov. female (pocl 4.5), Stn. Trawl 70, 26°23.831´N 126°45.685´E – 26°23.590´N 126°45.212´E, depth 95.5–123 m, 19 Nov. 2009, OUMNH.ZC.2011-02-043; 1 male (pocl 3.2), same collection data as for previous specimen, NTOU M01141 View Materials .

Remarks. The present specimens of this recently described species correspond closely to the original description ( Okuno & Fiedler 2010), being especially diagnostic amongst the Japanese species of Lysmata in having a short accessory branch on the dorsolateral antennular flagellum.

Distribution. The original description of L. lipkei was based on material from the Boso Peninsula (Pacific coast of Honshu), Okinawa and smaller adjacent islands, and Tokashiki-jima in the Kerama group. Thus, the Kumejima record does not materially extend its distribution range.
