As a result of the Lizard Island Amphipod workshop (2005) and also as part of samples of the Australia National Talitrid Survey (2003), three species of Talitridae are reported: a neotype is designated for Chelorchestia limicola (comb. nov.); Talorchestia spinipalma is recorded for Australia from observed material, and Talorchestia terraereginae, considered for more than 100 years as a junior synonym of T. spinipalma, is re-established.
