Abstract: A new species of cave-dwelling xanthid crab of the subfamily Liomerinae, Neoliomera cerasinus, is described from marine caves in Christmas Island (Indian Ocean) and Ryukyus (Japan). The species, the largest known in the genus, is characterised by its very broad carapace, entire anterolateral margin without emarginations or lobes, very granular carapace and appendages, elongate ambulatory dactyli and structure of the male first gonopod.
