English abstract This study is based on 62 samples of phytal and bottom sediments collected along rocky beaches (≤ 3 m water depth) of the central and northern coasts of the state of Santa Catarina (26°10’/27°50’S – 48°26’/48°40’W), southern Brazil. Living and dead ostracodes distributed among 16 families were recovered. In this paper is emphasized one new hemicytherid genus and species that is described and richly illustrated: Auricythere sublitoralis gen. nov. and sp. nov. Some ecological and zoogeographical aspects of this new ostracode are briefly discussed
