Type locality. Off Freycinet Peninsula , Tasmania, Australia, 41°58.60'S 148°38.80'E, 500 m depth GoogleMaps .
Etymology. Named for the steamship Colliboi beached on Woolnorth Point, Tasmania in 1932.
Diagnostic description. Antenna 1 peduncular article 1 not or only slightly produced dorsodistally. Mandible incisor present; left lacinia mobilis absent; accessory spine row absent; molar absent. Maxilla 1 outer plate with 3 setal-teeth, most setal-teeth without cusps; palp 2-articulate. Maxilliped palp article 2 longer than broad, length 1.9 x breadth. Gnathopod 1 basis margins subparallel; ischium short, length 1.6 x breadth; carpus long, length 3 x breadth, longer than (1.5 x) propodus; propodus tapered distally, length 2.4 x breadth. Pereopods 3 and 4 propodus with short distal locking seta. Pereopod 5 basis expanded posteroventrally, with posteroventral lobe; merus moderately expanded posteriorly. Pereopod 7 basis with posteroventral lobe extending about halfway along merus; merus posteroventral lobe extending less than halfway along carpus. Pleonite 3 without dorsodistal boss. Epimeron 3 posteroventral corner narrowly rounded. Uropod 1 rami without robust setae. Uropod 3 uniramous; outer ramus 1-articulate. Telson longer than broad, length about 1.3 x breadth.
Male. Antenna 1 with strong 2-field callynophore.
Remarks. Clepidecrella cataraqui , C. colliboi and C. ira share the characters of left lacinia mobilis absent and maxilla 1 outer plate with only 3 setal-teeth. Clepidecrella colliboi can be distinguished from C. ira by the lack of robust setae on the rami of uropod 1 and the uniramous uropod 3. It can be distinguished from C. cataraqui by the presence of cusps on one tooth of maxilla 1 outer plate setal-teeth, the slightly tapered propodus of gnathopod 1, the presence of a posteroventral lobe on the basis of pereopod 7 and the longer than broad telson.
The ovigerous holotype female has an oostegite on pereopod 5 only.
Distribution. South-eastern Australia, in 500–1000 m depth.
