Neogonodactylus is a genus of mantis shrimp. The genus was first described in 1995 by Raymond Manning. Neogonodactylus species are well known for having sophisticated visual systems that allow them to detect UV light; this ability is essential to their communication and foraging strategies in their dynamic coral reef environments. (Ultraviolet vision in Larval Neogonodactylus oerstedii, n.d.).
