Giuris species from the Indo-Pacific area are reviewed. Eight species are recognized including three new species. These are described using genetic and morphomeristic approaches. The species differ by a high percentage of divergence in partial COI gene (495 bp) and by several characters including the number of pectoral fin rays, the number of scales in transverse forward series, the number of scales around the eye, the interorbital length, and the body depth at first dorsal fin and at anus.
