This is the second part of the report on the galatheidean Crustacea taken by the R/V Soyo-Maru in the deeper parts of the Japanese waters. The collection of the Galatheidae comprises 9 species, two of which are new and five of which are recorded for the first time from the Japanese waters. The reader is referred to the introduction of the previous article (BABA, 1981) for the source of material and the brief notes on the distribution of the Japanese deep-sea Galatheidae as well as the Chirostylidae. I thank Dr. T. OKUTANI and Dr. M. TAKEDA of the National Science Museum, Tokyo, for making this collection available to me; Dr. F. A. CHACE, Jr. of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D. C., for kindly allowing me to have access to the identified specimens deposited in the Crustacea Division of the National Museum of Natural History; Dr. R. B. MANNING of the same Institution, for arranging at my request the loan of the Atlantic specimens of Munida microphthalma, providing me with copies of the paper by FILHOL (1884), and suggesting to me the correct original citation of Munidopsis antonii; Dr. L. B. HOLTHUIS of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlike Historie, Leiden, for answering my inquiry about the original citation of M. antonii.
