Abstract

Two marine gastrotrich species are reported from sublittoral sand bottom of Korea: Diplodasys ankeli Wilke, 1954 and D. meloriae Todaro, Balsamo and Tongiorgi, 1992. Both species are redescribed in detail, with the discussion on the intraspecific variability between Korean specimens and the original description or among Korean specimens. The genus Diplodasys is newly recorded from Korea as well as the Northwest Pacific.
