Filhollianassa filholi is a ghost shrimp of the family Callianassidae, endemic to New Zealand, which grows up to 60 mm (2.4 in) long.

[5] It was named after Henri Filhol, who collected specimens of it from Stewart Island, New Zealand.

[5] Filhollianassa filholi live in an underground burrow in sand.

The shrimp has flap-like abdominal appendages called pleopod which it uses for swimming and creating water movement through its burrow.

Fertilised eggs, yellow in colour, are carried by the female on her abdomen.
