The family Rectarturidae is rediagnosed and three new genera and four new species from Australia added. The new genera are differentiated from each other and from Rectarcturus in overall sculptural patterns, the male pleopod 1 exopod, setation, shape and proportion of articles of pereopods 2 and 3, and length and proportions of articles of the antenna. The new genera and species are: Galathearcturus antoniae, Nowrarcturus jamesi, Tasmarcturus erinae and T. lewisi. Arcturus simplicissimus Whitelegge, 1904 is assigned to Tasmarcturus. The South American genus, Rectarcturus, is rediagnosed; its two species, R. kophameli and R. tuberculatus, appear in a key to all species of the family.
