Here, we report the whole-genome sequences of two bacterial strains, Muricauda sp. 72 and NH166, isolated from the South China Sea and West Pacific Ocean, respectively. These two strains may represent a novel species of the genus Muricauda, and the features of their genome sequences will enrich our understandings of strains in the genus Muricauda.

Four species of the genusSalmoneusHolthuis, 1955 are described and illustrated in the present paper, including two newly recorded species,Salmoneus cristatus(Coutière, 1897) andSalmoneus tricristatusBanner, 1959. The mouthparts of these two species are illustrated herein. A key to all Indo-West Pacific species of the genusSalmoneusis provided as well.

Hippolyteshrimps exhibit abundant biological diversity and display great ecological significance in seaweed bed ecosystems. Dozens ofHippolytespecimens were collected from Hainan Island and the Xisha Islands in the South China Sea. Detailed examination indicates that some of these specimens represent newHippolytespecies. Based on morphological, genetic, and ecological data,Hippolyte chaceisp. nov. andH. nanhaiensissp. nov. are described.H. chaceisp. nov. was collected from theSargassumsp. biotope in Hainan Island and is distinguished from congeners by its unique mandible and the dactylus of the third to fifth pereiopods; this species has a basal position in the Indo-West Pacific species clade in the phylogenetic tree which is reconstructed based on 16S rRNA gene.H. nanhaiensissp. nov. was collected from the biotopes ofGalaxaurasp. orHalimedasp. in the Xisha Islands, and it differs from congeners in a series of characters associated with rostrum, scaphocerite, antennular peduncle, and spines on the dactylus of the third to fifth pereiopods. Additionally, it is sister toH. australiensisin the phylogenetic tree. A key to identifying mature femaleHippolytespecies of the Indo-West Pacific and neighboring seas is provided.

The Indian sillago, Sillago indica McKay, Dutt & Sujatha, 1985, is redescribed on the basis of three paratypes and two newly collected specimens.  The presence of two posterior extensions of the swimbladder instead of one suggests that it belongs to the subgenus Sillago.  Comments on its subgeneric status and comparisons with members of Sillago (Sillago) are provided.  Two specimens collected from Vietnam represent the first record of the species from the South China Sea, western Pacific Ocean.

Three articulated brachiopod species have been recognized in material collected during the 2014 French-Taiwanese cruise DongSha to the South China Sea, NW Pacific: Terebratulina japonica (Sowerby, 1846), Macandrevia sp. and Nipponithyris afra Cooper, 1973. Nipponithyris afra is noted for the first time from the Northern Hemisphere and the genus Macandrevia is reported for the first time from the West Pacific. All species are reported for the first time from the South China Sea, extending their biogeographical range.
