A new species of majid crab, Sakaija amicitiae n. sp., is described from New Caledonia Exclusive Economic Zone, Vauban seamount and the Chesterfield Atolls. The species is superficially similar to S. japonica (Rathbun, 1932) and S. santo Ng & Richer de Forges, 2015, from Vanuatu. Specimens from New Caladonia previously referred to S. santo are now referred to the new species. Sakaija amicitiae n. sp. can be distinguished from congeners by features of the carapace spines, proportions of the ambulatory legs and structure of the male first gonopod.
