A new species of gammaridean amphipod, Gammarus preciosus sp. nov., is described and illustrated based on specimens collected from the Baotianman Natural Reserve, Henan Province, China. This new species is characterized by the inner ramus of the third uropod reaching 0.4 times the length of the outer ramus, and the outer ramus with spines on its outer margin and plumose setae on its inner margin. The morphology of the species is discussed in relation to other, closely similar species.
