Grandidierella rabindranathi Thacker et al. 2024: 394–398 View Cited Treatment , figs. 9–11.

Diagnosis. Sternal spine on male pereonite 1 long and backwardly directed. Male Gnathopod 1 carpus anterior margin with few setae, posterodistal spine present; propodus oval with anterior and posterior margin convex. Male gnathopod 2 coxa ventral margin without spine; basis 3.4 × longer than broad.

Remarks. This species was described on the basis of the specimens collected from the Barkuda Island, Chilika Lake, Odisha, India. This species can be differentiated from its closely related congeners G. mahafalensis and G. nioensis by having male gnathopod 2 carpus oval shaped with anterior and posterior margins convex and comparatively smaller male gnathopod 2 basis length and width ratio.

Distribution. This species is only reported from its type locality Barkuda Island, Chilika Lake, Odisha, India ( Thacker et al. 2024 b).
