Study sites Study sites cornposed of five islands located in Marine National Park, Amphoe Khanom. Nakorn Si Thamrn;rrat Province. lower Gulf of Thailand. ( F i g ~ ~ 1 )e. r Specimens sampling Amphipods wcrc collected rrom five sitcs at five isl:~ndsin March. 2008. All of the sites were located in the intertidal zone at 1-2 ni depth. The sites were visited at low tide and samples were collected from the intertidal to suhtidal zone. Algae were collected by scraping them from their substrates using ;I small shovel. The substrates wcre transferred to plastic bags ant1 preserved in 5 % formalin.
Amphipods were sorted from the substrates under sterco microscope in thc laboratory. The protocol for amphipods identification follows that of Barnard and Karaman (1991). Drawings were made using an Olj,tnpus CH30 microscope equipped with a camera lucitla. Each species of amphipods was drawn to illustrate the whole body and dissected to illustrate other diagnostic characters. Body length refers to the measurement from the tip of rostrum to apex of telson. Type material uncl additional representative material arc deposited in the Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Natul.al History Museurn. Prince of Songkla University. Thailand.

Result A total of 12 species belonging to seven families of amphipods were identified (Table I). Eisht species were reported for the first time in Gulf of Thailand and South China Sea of which one species was apparently undescribed. These i~mphipodsare mostly associated with algae. and some species, such as A~lcilr~ii-is. associated with tunicate and sponge. The largest number of species is in family is Ampithoidae and Photidae (3 species).

pubtctomiddle margin. IJropod 1-2 biramous. outcr ramus slightly shorter than inner ramus. peduncle of i~sopod1-2 with weak and blu~itventrodistnl process. Uropod 3 stout and short. biramous. both sami very short. peduncle longer than rami, outer ramus recurved apically, with 2 distal hook-spines. inner ramus longer than outer ramus. broad. pad-like and apically setose. Telson entire. broader than long. subg,..I>ular with 2 apical spines.

Distribution This species was first recordecl and described by K . H. Barnard in 1926 from Africa. It was silbsequently reported from the same region by Griffiths (1976) and lower Gulf of Thailand (cunent s~lrvcy). Remark The examined material closely agrees with description and figures by Bamard (1926) but differs in the palm of male gnathopod 2 which is straight with :I single definite spine while ~ a r n a r d A f s specimens show that gnathopod 2 has oblique sinuous palm.

Stebbing (1906). It is now known to occur in Southern Sea Islands,Gulf of Thailand.

Remark
The specimens reported here are similar to those reported by Giles (1890) with the exception of possessin; a small hump o n the posterior pereon segment while the Giles' specimens are smooth.

Discussion
T h e d o m i n a n t g r o u p in this study is a m p i t h o i d s that a r e c o m m o n l y herbivorous and prefer vegetative ecosystems such a s seagrass and algae beds (Barnard, 1970 and Myer, 1985). S o m e species are rare a s Maera quadrimancr that occurred only in R a b Island and Anamixis s p . A that was found only at W a n g Nok and R a b Island. T h e first o n e was reported in coral reef and sandy beach while the latter is associated with sponge and tunicate (Barnard and Karaman, 1991). T h e amphipods found in this study consisted of 12 species of which 8 species are n e w records for this area and one species should b e new to science according to the list of amphipod in South China S e a (Lowry, 2000). It implies that the further studies of amphipod diversity are nepded including species richness. ecology and also seasonal variatio~iof amphipod community. Furthermore. study of amphipods in adjacent habitats s u c h a s coral reef, seagrass bed a n d rocky s h o r e s should b e investigated t o understand amphipod distribution and migration.
