Chapman’s (1910) <i>Pseudocythere funafutiensis</i> from 1924m off Funafuti, western Pacific is redescribed and illustrated together with additional Pleistocene and Recent material from the Coral and Tasman seas. A new paradoxostomatid genus, <i>Glyphidocythere,</i> is described to accommodate it and two other species yet to be formally described from the Banda Sea, eastern Indonesia. The genus is apparently restricted to the marine slope environment of low (less than 20°) southern latitudes. In the Coral and Tasman seas <i>G. funafutiensis</i> occurs within a narrow bathyal depth range (955m to 1754m) coincident with the Antarctic Intermediate Water.
