Аннотация:Both sexes of Laperocheres koorius, associated with the littoral sponge Amphimedon sp. (Porifera: Demospongiae: Haplosclerida: Niphatidae) in Australia (vicinity of Sydney), are described. The new genus can be distinguished from the 44 genera of the family Asterocheridae by the formula of legs 1-4: the third segment of the endopod of leg 3 with 1,I,1; the first segment of the exopod of legs 1-4 with 1-0; the third segment of the exopod of legs 2-4 with 4 spines. One of the outer spines (the middle) on the third exopodal segment of leg 2 is sexually dimorphic.
