Catapaguroides iejimensis Osawa & Takeda, 2004: 1113 View in CoL View Cited Treatment , figs. 5–7 (type locality: Ie Island, Ryukyu Islands).— Osawa & Okuno 2007: 44, fig. 7D.

Material examined. Ie Island, unnamed submarine cave: entrance, 24 June 2017, 1 male (sl 1.8 mm), RUMF- ZC-6026 ( IE 177 ).

Distribution. Ryukyu Islands (Ie Island and Kume Island) in southwestern Japan; 15–30 m ( Osawa & Okuno 2007).

Habitat. Coral reefs; often found in submarine caves ( Osawa & Okuno 2007).

Remarks. Catapaguroides iejimensis has been recorded primary from submarine caves in the Ryukyu Islands ( Osawa & Takeda 2004; Osawa & Okuno 2007; Table 2), but the specimens hitherto obtained are rather limited. Only one specimen was collected during the present investigations.
