Abstract
A new hydromedusa belonging to the order Limnomedusae is reported from the Ryukyu Archipelago, southern Japan. Olindias deigosp. nov. can be distinguished from other Olindiidae species by the number and color of tentacles. Mature medusae of O. deigosp. nov. were collected to observe the life history, including polyp (hydroid) and medusa formation. A comparative table of the primary diagnostic characters of the genus is provided.
