A new stygobitic amphipod, Idunella verrilli, is described from the subterranean marine waters of Green Bay Cave, Bermuda. Specimens were collected during SCUBA exploration of the cave system in 1997. This species is readily distinguished from the only other liljeborgiid amphipod found in Bermuda, Idunella sketi Karaman, 1980.
