Nine zoeal and one decapodid stages of the hippolytid shrimp Latreutes anoplonyx are described from laboratory-reared material. The shape and armature of the abdomen distinguish the larvae of L. anoplonyx from those of L. laminirostris, the other known species of Latreutes from East Asia. The larvae of L. anoplonyx show features not found in other Latreutinae, and Latreutes larvae show features not found in other Hippolytidae. Larval characters question the separation of the genera Latreutes and Tozeuma and the way in which the family Hippolytidae is divided into subfamilies.
