Anthessius rarus n. sp. is associated with the aplysiid gastropod Dolabella auricularia (Lightfoot, 1786) in Bohol, the Philippines and has elongate caudal rami which are about 5.2 times as long as wide. Anthessius cucullatus n. sp. associated with the aplysiid gastropod Aplysia kurodai Baba, 1937 in Korea has a hood-like dorsal expansion on genital double-somite of the female.

  • Three new species of Myzomolgus are described as associates of sipunculans from a tidal flat in Phuket, Thailand. As diagnostic features, Myzomolgus leptocercosus n. sp. has elongate caudal rami which are 10.7 times longer than wide, 5 setae and a conical process on the first antennular segment, an armature formula 1, 0, 1+sucker, and 6 of antenna, and an inner coxal seta on all swimming legs. Myzomolgus spatulatus n. sp. lacks a rostrum, but bears 4 setae and a spatulate process on the first antennular segment, an armature formula 0, 0, 2+sucker, and 6 of the antenna, the inner coxal seta on legs 1-3, and 5 armture elements on the third endopodal segment of legs 1-3. Myzomolgus cucullatus n. sp. has short caudal rami which are 1.60 times longer than wide, a broad, hood-like tergite of fouth pedigerous somite, 4 setae only on the first antennular segment, the armature formula 0. 0. 2+sucker, and 6 of the antenna, and no iiner coxal seta on the swimming legs.

  • Nine new species of Pseudanthessius are described from tropical waters, five of which from the Philippines (P. boholensis n. sp., P. angustus n. sp., P. firmus n. sp., P. ardius n. sp., and P. lativentris n. sp.), two from Vietnam (P. remicaudatus n. sp. and P. nodosus n. sp.), and one each from Micronesia (P. kosraensis n. sp.) and the Thai coast of the Andaman Sea (P. fossulicolus n. sp.). Pseudanthessius dentatus Kim, 2000 which was known originally from the Korean coast of the Yellow Sea, and P. planus Kim, 2007 originally from the Moluccas, are rediscovered on the Thai coast of the Andaman Sea and the Philippines, respectively.
