The order Euryalida Lamarck, 1816 (Echinodermata: Ophiuroidea) comprises 4 families, 48 genera and about 190 species and is known from marine water. By the examination of type specimens of 117 species, taxonomy of euryalid genera and species from the Western Pacific are revised. With junior synonymizations of 2 species and descriptions of 1 genus and 5 species, a total of 120 species were recognized in this region. Molecular phylogeny based on mitochondrial and nuclear genes reviewed family-level systematics of the order.

Two forms of test are known in a fibulariid sea urchin, Fibulariella acuta (Yoshiwara, 1898). One is a "rice grain-shaped" in which both the anterior and the posterior tips are pointed. Another is an "egg-shaped" in which the anterior tip is pointed but the posterior is broad. This species was originally described as "egg-shaped;" nevertheless, the post described drawing of the syntype by the same author showed its "rice grain-shaped." Although many taxonomic examinations have been made to understand the meaning of difference between the two forms, the meaning has not been clarified until today. We here compared the external morphologies of the test and pedicellariae between the two forms based on 59 specimens from Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. In addition to the external outline of the tests, morphology of pedicellariae was clearly different between the rice grain-shaped and egg-shaped specimens as follows: the former had three types of pedicellariae (globiferous, bidentate, and biphyllous), whereas the latter had only two types (globiferous and bidentate). These morphological differences suggest that the two forms of F. acuta should be revised as two different species.

An amendment to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature was passed on 4th Sept 2012 that formally establishes ZooBank as the online version of the Official Register of Zoological Nomenclature, and allows valid publication of new nomenclatural acts in electronic-only journals as well as electronic-first works. The amendment requires electronic-only, and electronic-first works to be registered in ZooBank, and to include the registration number ('ZooBank LSID') in the publication. Although registration of the names and nomenclatural acts themselves is not yet required for their availability, the amendment encourages authors to register all new names and nomenclatural acts, whether they are introduced in e-only publications or in standard paper publications as well as publications, names and acts that have been previously published. This paper provides a practical instruction manual in Japanese to assist taxonomists to register their work in ZooBank based on its new version 3.1.

Thirty-two specimens (124.1–365.0 mm standard length) of Saurida undosquamis (Richardson, 1848) (Aulopiformes: Synodontidae), previously recorded from the Indo-West Pacific from Persian Gulf, Chagos Archipelago, Andaman Sea to Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Papua New Guinea and northern half and southwestern Australia, were collected from the mainland of Kagoshima Prefecture and Tanega-shima island in the Osumi Islands, southern Japan. These specimens represent the first records of S. undosquamis from Japanese waters and include the northernmost records (Kasasa, west coast of Satsuma Peninsula) for the species. The Japanese specimens are described here in detail and the new Japanese name “Tsukeage-eso” is proposed for the species.

従来イセエビ科のリョウマエビとワグエビはめったに採捕されない稀種とされていた.しかし,これまでの知見と三重県和具でイセエビ刺網に採捕された結果を整理したところ,リョウマエビは10個体以上,ワグエビは数個体が毎年採捕されていることが明らかになった.これら2種類のエビは,日本近海ではさほど稀れではなく,おそらくは他の国でも同様であろう.

Toba Aquarium regularly collects marine invertebrates from the Kumano Sea on the Pacific coast of central Japan. These animals are mainly used for exhibition in the aquarium as well as for taxonomic studies. When the taxonomic status of the animals is uncertain, we work with researchers to observe the specimens of those marine invertebrates. From 2006 to 2019, 382 species from 12 phyla have been so far recorded from the bathyal zone of Kumano Sea. Together with 26 researchers, we examined a total of 103 species collected during the surveys and nine out of them were described as new species. Using our rearing techniques, some interesting behaviors of the bathyal marine invertebrates were observed with live specimens in the aquarium.

Morphological and morphometrical studies were performed to elucidate the speciation and racial differentiation of the fish belonging to the genus Leuciscus (=Tribolodon), in addition to the revisional examination of the cephalic lateral-line system as an ideal character for the classification of this group of fish proposed by NAKAMURA (1963, 1969). The materials were collected from various rivers, streams and lakes, ranging from the southern part of Hokkaido to the north of Nagano Prefecture. The present investigation confirmed roughly the results of NAKAMURA (1963, 1969), and the Japanese dace were classified tentatively as follows: Leuciscus brandti (=L. jusanensis, very probably), superspecies, sea-run form. L. hakonensis, sea-run form and freshwater form. L. ezoe, freshwater form. L. taczanowskii ?, sea-run form, found probably in the Pacific side. L. sp. (Nom. Jap.: Ukekuchi-ugui. Uke-kuchi means the feature of the mouth part, showing the protruded lower jaw) freshwater form, found exclusively in the River Agano. It is of interest to know that the individuals with larger number of scales on the lateral line, such as L. jusanensis and L. sp., posses also the larger number of scales before dorsal fin. As stated previously (NAKAMURA, 1963, 1969), by the features of cephalic lateral-line system, the fish were classified into two major groups, such as the A and B types. In the A (L. jusanensis and L. taczanowskii) with larger number of scales on the lateral line, there is found a junction between the postocular commissure (POC) and preoperculomandibular canal (POM), while in the B (L. hakonensis, L. ezoe and L. sp.) no junction is detected between the POM and POC. When the pores of POM were counted, the number in L. hakonensis and L. ezoe is concentrated in 13, while that of the rest three races is in 20. In the case of the pores of supratemporal canal (ST), the number in L. hakonensis and L. ezoe is fewer than that of the rest (more than 9). However, there is a variation of the number of ST in some populations of the sea run form of L. hakonensis, 6 to 8. The secondary sexual characters, such as the features of nuptial coloration and pearl organ, differ among different races. Therefore, it is considered that these characters are intrinsic for each race and useful for classification of mature adult dace. L. sp. (Ukekuchiugui) found exclusively in the Agano River system is a peculiar race in having the mixture of morphometric characters of different races. Further studies including comparative endocrinology are now in progress to clarify the adaptability and evolution of the Japanese dace.
