Amaryllis carrascoi is a species of crustacean in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart.[2][3]
It is found on the southern coastlines of Australia, from Botany Bay, New South Wales to King George Sound, Western Australia, in sublittoral zones and generally in shallow water (1 - 30 m depth), and in association with algae, sea grasses and bryozoans or on sands.[2]
