Nine zoeal stages of Lysmata vittata (Stimpson, 1860) are described from laboratory-reared material. The ornamentation of the carapace and the fifth abdominal somite readily distinguish the first zoeas of L. vittata from the two previously known first larvae of Lysmata (L. anchisteus and L. seticaudata). Larval characters of the genus Lysmata are summarized. The setation of 1,2,3(6) on the basis of the second maxilliped indicates that Lysmata is closely related to Exhippolysmata.

The hipplytid shrimp Lysmata amboinensis (De Man, 1888) is recorded in Korean waters for the first time, based on specimens collected from Jeju-do Island in southern Korea. L. amboinensis is distinguished from L. vittata, previously the only known species of Lysmata in Korea by the color in life. The Korean Hippolytidae now includes 25 species in nine genera.
