During an investigation carried out by the Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOCAS), three living raphitomid specimens were collected from a hydrothermal vent site in the Manus Back-Arc Basin. Observations of the shell, external anatomy and radular morphology reveal that they represent an undescribed species of the genus Phymorhynchus Dall, 1908. In this paper, we describe and illustrate this species as Phymorhynchus oculatus sp. nov. The new species is most similar in general shell shape to Phymorhynchus buccinoides Okutani, Fujikura & Sasaki, 1993, but can be distinguished from it by having spiral cords over the whole shell surface and much longer marginal tooth with a distal barb. A list of species of Phymorhynchus from vent/seep habitats is also given.

The new species Mongolotettix.fujianensis sp. nov. is similar to M. wulingyuanensis Shi, Liu et Li, 2016, but differs from the latter by maximum width of cubital area 1.4 times maximum width of medial area in tegmina of male; body small, length of body ♂ 21.5. mm, ♀ 30.6 mm; vertical diameter eye 1.3 times horizontal diameter in male; hind femur of male with 103 stridulatory pegs on inner side and epiphallus with indistinct projection on inner side of lateral plates. Type specimens are deposited in the Shanghai Entomological Museum, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai, 200032, China.
