Periclimenes acanthimerus is a species of shrimp found in New Caledonia. [1] It was first named by Alexander James Bruce in 2006.
New Caledonia is a sui generis collectivity of overseas France in the southwest Pacific Ocean, south of Vanuatu, about 1,210 km (750 mi) east of Australia, and 17,000 km (11,000 mi) from Metropolitan France. The archipelago, part of the Melanesia subregion, includes the main island of Grande Terre, the Loyalty Islands, the Chesterfield Islands, the Belep archipelago, the Isle of Pines, and a few remote islets. The Chesterfield Islands are in the Coral Sea. French people, especially locals, call Grande Terre "Le Caillou".
Palaemonidae is a family of shrimp in the order Decapoda. Many species are carnivores that eat small invertebrates, and can be found in any aquatic habitat except the deep sea. One significant genus is Macrobrachium, which contains commercially fished species. Others inhabit coral reefs, where they associate with certain invertebrates, such as sponges, cnidarians, mollusks, and echinoderms, as cleaner shrimps, parasites, or commensals. They generally feed on detritus, though some are carnivores and hunt tiny animals.
Ancylomenes magnificus, also known as the magnificent anemone shrimp, is a species of cleaner shrimp common to the Western Pacific Ocean at depths of 3–29 metres (10–95 ft). They are commonly found on stony coral, Catalaphyllia and the sea anemone, Dofleinia armata.
Corynocarpus is the only genus of plants in the family Corynocarpaceae and includes five species. It is native to New Guinea, Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia, and Vanuatu.
Palaemonoidea is a large superfamily of shrimp, containing nearly 1,000 species. The position of the family Typhlocarididae is unclear, although the monophyly of a group containing the remaining seven families is well supported.
Periclimenes imperator, known as the emperor shrimp, is a species of shrimp with a wide distribution across the Indo-Pacific. It lives commensally on a number of hosts, including the sea slug Hexabranchus. A. J. Bruce first described it in 1967 based on eight specimens ranging from 4 millimetres (0.16 in) to 7.6 millimetres (0.30 in), and found Periclimenes rex to be its best resemblance.
Periclimenes dardanicola is a species of shrimp found in the western Pacific Ocean. It lives in association with sea anemones that live on the gastropod shells carried by hermit crabs. It was first named by Alexander J. Bruce and Junji Okuno in 2006. It is mainly white, and grows up to a carapace length of 4 mm (0.16 in).
Cuapetes agag is a species of shrimp found in New Caledonia, Melanesia, Queensland, and the Red Sea. It was first named by Kemp in 1922.
Ancylomenes is a genus of shrimp, erected in 2010 to accommodate the group of species around "Periclimenes aesopius". Members of the genus are widely distributed in the warm oceans of the world, and live in association with cnidarians; most are cleaner shrimp.
Ancylomenes venustus, also known as the graceful anemone shrimp, is a species of shrimp which belongs to the family of the Palaemonidae. This species is found in the tropical waters from the centre of the Indo-Pacific biogeographical area. A. venustus lives in association with scleractinians and actiniarians and is a cleaner shrimp.
Cuapetes lacertae, previously known as Periclimenes lacertae, is a species of shrimp belonging to the family Palaemonidae. Its name is due to the fact the first specimen was collected from Lizard Island: lacerta being Latin for "lizard".
Ancylomenes holthuisi is a species of marine shrimp in the family Palaemonidae. It was first described in 1969 by A.J. Bruce as Periclimenes holthuisi.
Periclimenes colemani is a species of saltwater shrimp found in the Indo-Pacific Ocean that was first described in 1975 by Alexander James Bruce.
The 2017 OFC Youth Futsal tournament was the first edition of the OFC Youth Futsal Tournament, the youth international futsal championship organised by the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) for the men's and women's national under-18 teams of Oceania.

Periclimenes, commonly known as glass shrimp or cleaner shrimp, is a commensal and often symbiotic genus of semi-transparent shrimp within the family Palaemonidae. Species of this large genus feature a wide variety of coloration and patterns, widespread distribution throughout much of the world's tropical oceans, and are often sought out for aquarium trade.
Zenopontonia is a genus of shrimp within the family Palaemonidae.
Periclimenes carinidactylus is a species of saltwater shrimp found in Australian coastal waters and was first described in 1969 by Alexander James Bruce.

Periclimenes madreporae is a species of saltwater shrimp in the family, Palaemonidae, and was first described in 1969 by Alexander James Bruce.
Periclimenes mahei is a species of saltwater shrimp in the family, Palaemonidae, and was first described in 1969 by Alexander James Bruce.
