A new cave Gammarus species, Gammarus praecipuus sp. nov., from Sichuan, China, is described. This new species can be distinguished from other Gammarus species by eyes absent; the outer plate of maxilla 1 with 31 robust serrated apical spines, distinctly more than commonGammarus species with 11 spines ; both rami of uropod 1 bare; and inner ramus of uropod 3 reaching 0. 5 times the length of outer ramus. Type specimens are deposited in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences ( IZCAS), Beijing.
