ABSTRACT – This paper examines the amphipod fauna of Western Australia. Emphasis is placed on amphipods collected on the 1999 West Australian Museum diving survey of the Dampier Archipelago (DA3/99). The Ampithoidae was identified as one of the most abundant in the survey. The species composition of this family in comparison to other families is discussed. This paper also provides a checklist to the Western Australian amphipod fauna.
