AbstractA new species of ampithoid amphipod, Sunamphitoe gigantea sp. nov., is described from Katsurakoi, Hokkaido, Japan. The new species most closely resembles S. eoa, but can be distinguished from it by the shorter flagellum of antenna 1, the maxilla 1 inner plate that bears two slender setae, the short dactylus of male gnathopod 2, and the presence of a group of long setae on anterior margins of pereopods 3 and 4 bases. Nucleotide sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I obtained from the type specimens also differentiated this new species from the congeners. Ontogenetic morphological changes of the male gnathopod 2 are briefly discussed.

A new species of the eusirid amphipod, Rhachotropis reiwa is described from off Amamioshima Island, northwestern Pacific. The new species differs from its congeners in having large eyes, the middorsal tooth on pereonite 7, pleonite 3 and urosomite 1 without middorsal and dorsolateral teeth, the basis of pereopod 5 strongly produced posteriorly, and pereopod 6 with the triangular basis. A key to the species of Rhachotropis from Japanese and adjacent waters is provided. Additionally, a nucleotide sequence of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I from its holotype was determined for the future study.

A new benthic isopod species, Arcturina serrulatus sp. nov. (Arcturidae Dana, 1849), is described from South Korea. Additionally, we report Limnoria rhombipunctata Yoshino, Watabe & Ohsawa, 2017 (Limnoriidae White, 1850) from the rhizome of Zostera sp. (seagrass). These are the first records of species belonging to the families Arcturidae and Limnoriidae from South Korea. We provide detailed descriptions of the diagnostic characters of the two species. We also determined their partial sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) for molecular diagnosis.

A New Species

We describe a new snake of the genus Achalinus based on an adult female specimen from Ninh Binh Province, Vietnam. Achalinus tranganensis sp. nov. is differentiated from its congeners genetically and by a unique combination of the following characters: 1) maxillary teeth 29; 2) suture between the internasals distinctly longer than that between the prefrontals; 3) loreal distinctly wider than high, extending from the nasal to the eye; 4) dorsal scales in 25–23–23 rows, keeled; 5) two pairs of prefrontals; 6) supralabials six; 7) infralabials six; 8) temporals 2+3, the two anterior temporals in contact with eye; 9) ventrals 171; 10) subcaudals 73+, unpaired; 11) cloacal plate entire; 12) dorsum in preservative reddish to greyish brown above; 13) the lower part of head side and chin region somewhat paler than the dorsum; 14) venter greyish cream, with the anterior region of each ventral and subcaudal somewhat darker. Based on molecular comparisons using a fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), the new species differs from other members of the genus by at least 11.8%. This discovery increases the number of Achalinus species known from Vietnam to seven.

Mitochondrial Cytochrome C

DNA barcoding based on a fragment of mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase subunit 1 gene (COI) was applied to the two chironomids Clunio balticus Heimbach (690 base pairs) and C. ponticus Michailova (691 base pairs). The two species differed by one deletion in the nucleotide sequence Adenine. However, the 658-nucleotide long sequences of DNA from the mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase subunit 1 gene (COI) of C. balticus and C. ponticus were identical upon comparison. Further, they compared with homologous sequences for C. marinus Holiday and C. tsushimensis Tokunaga from the Barcode of Life (BOLD) database and the results plotted as a weighted graph, where C. tsushimensis, C. marinus and C. balticus C. ponticus formed three almost equidistant groups. From this, we established that the genetic distance between the respective COI sequences of C. balticus and C. ponticus is minimal, indicating a close relationship between the species indicative of recent common origin. However, the comparative analysis between C. tsushimensis, C. marinus, C. balticus and C. ponticus showed a wider divergence in their respective nucleotide sequences. Overall, our results emphasized that the COI region does not work well as a DNA barcode to identify species within the Clunio genus. Either longer sequences or a multifaceted methodological approach, including morphology, cytogenetic and ecology is needed to distinguish some members of Clunio genus.

Analyses of morphological and molecular data from specimens of Homatula from China reveal an undescribed species which lives in the Nanpanjiang River, the upper Pearl River, and indicate that H. acuticephala is a synonym of H. anguillioides. The new species is collected from Yunnan, China. It differs from its congeners by having a naked and robust body, developed adipose crests (depth of caudal peduncle in the percent of its length:70.53–78.48), a median notch on the lower jaw, a median gap on the lower lip, short barbels with maxillary barbels extend posteriorly reaching the anterior edge of eyes, vertebrae 37–38, completed lateral line. New species differs from other species of Homatula by 0.05–0.11 in K2P distance of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1. Phylogenetic analysis based on mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 indicate that new species formed a sister group to co-drainage species. Based on both morphological and molecular results, we confirm that the validation of this undescribed species named H. robusta sp. nov. and describe it.

Holarctic Species

The Japanese species of the genus Linycus Cameron are examined with two species recognized. A Holarctic species, L. exhortator (Fabricius) is newly collected from Japan [Hokkaido, Honshû, Shikoku, Kyûshû], and a new species, L. kyoheii sp. nov., is described from Yamanshi Pref., Honshû. The two Japanese species can be distinguished by a white spot on scutellum (present in L. kyoheii vs. absent in L. exhorator), and sculpture of area between gastrocoeli (weakly rugose-punctate in L. kyoheii vs. clearly rugose in L. exhortator). We also compared the Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (CO1) of Japanese L. exhortator with European L. exhortator. The p-distances between Japanese and European subspecies exhortator were about 2%, whereas between Japanese and Nearctic ssp. thoracius (Cresson) were about 5%. Here we provisionally treat Japanese L. exhorator as nominotypical subspecies. The intra-specific DNA barcode divergence and allopatric color variations are discussed.
