The originally poorly described alpheid shrimp Betaeus levifrons Vinogradov, 1950 is redescribed based on several adult specimens collected in the Vostok Bay (part of Peter the Great Bay) situated near Nakhodka City, about 90 km southwest from the type locality of the species, the Zolotoi Rog Bay, the Sea of Japan. The specimens were collected with the yabby pump from burrows on sandy-gravel bottom and appears to be associated with the burrowing mud-shrimps Upogebia major (De Haan, 1841) and U. issaeffi (Balss, 1914) (Upogebiidae).
