Abstract

The ischyrocerid amphipod Ventojassa dentipalma Kim & Kim, 1991 was recently collected from Otsuchi Bay, northeast Japan. The present specimens represent the second record of the species as well as the first Japanese record of the genus. Brief morphological descriptions and line drawings of diagnostic characters are provided. Details of the characters distinguishing the species from V. ventosa (Barnard, 1962) are discussed.
