The present study deals with a collection of deep-sea shrimp of the pandalid genus Pandalopsis Spence Bate, 1888 from the Nemuro Strait, Hokkaido, southwestern part of the Sea of Okhotsk. Three new species are described and illustrated: Pandalopsis capillus n. sp., P. houyuu n. sp. and P. princeps n. sp. In addition, Pandalopsis glabra Kobjakova, 1936, a species endemic to the Sea of Okhotsk, is supplementary reported. Most specimens were collected from steep slopes or hard bottoms at depths greater than 400 m by commercial shrimp trap or gill nets operated by local fishermen. Differentiation of the new species is primarily based on a morphological comparison, supplemented by a preliminary genetic analysis of partial segments of the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene. An identification key to the species of Pandalopsis is presented.

Schornikovoecia eugenyi gen. et sp. nov. of the benthopelagic ostracods of the subfamily Bathyconchoeciinae is established and described, based upon samples collected in the deep-sea zones near the Kurile-Kamchatka Trench and in the Sea of Okhotsk (Kurile Hollow). Most of the specimens have been found at depths over 5000 m. The new genus differs sharply from the currently known genera Bathyconchoecia, Scottoecia, Bathyconchoecetta and Septemoecia of this subfamily in numerous ways: the singular sculpture; the form and structure of the glands on the carapace; the masticatory pad on the mandible; the arming of the fifth limb. The new genus is at present monospecific. Descriptions of the new genus and its new species S. eugenyi sp. nov. are presented.

Lycodapus leptus n.sp., L. poecilus n.sp., and L. psarostomatus n.sp. are described from the eastern Bering Sea. A new key to all known species of Lycodapus is presented. In addition, L. fierasfer Gilbert, L. parviceps Gilbert, and L. derjugini Andriashev are recognized from the Bering Sea and L. microdon Schmidt is recognized from the Sea of Okhotsk. The northern range limit of Lycodapus dermatinus Gilbert is established from a sea mount off southeastern Alaska. A specimen of Lycodapus that cannot be identified to species represents the most southern record for the genus in Asiatic waters.
