Abstract

Three Loxoconcha Sars, 1866 (L. bizenensis Okubo, 1980, L. japonica Ishizaki, 1968, and L. tosaensis Ishizaki,1968), one Loxocorniculum Benson and Coleman, 1963 (Lc. mutsuense Ishizaki, 1971), and two PontocythereDubowsky, 1939 (P. miurensis (Hanai, 1959), and P. xiphoidea Nakao and Tsukagoshi, 2002) speciesare briefly redescribed and illustrated. Soft part morphology of L. tosaensis are described and illustrated herefor the first time, since this species was known only by the shell morphology. A key to all living Loxoconchaand Loxocorniculum species from East Asia is suggested to facilitate subsequent identification, along withthe lists to all East Asian species of the three genera.
