In September 1987, a small collection of decapod crustaceans were obtained by trawl at the Okhotsk coast of Hokkaido in depth ranging from 718 to 960 m.

| Summary: | In September 1987, a small collection of decapod crustaceans were obtained by trawl at the Okhotsk coast of Hokkaido in depth ranging from 718 to 960 m. The poorly known carideans, Pandalopsis glabra, P. ochotensis, and Sclerocrangon derjugini are figured and described, of which the latter two represent the first record from Japanese waters as well as the bathymetric range extension. Besides, an anomuran, Lithodes couesi is newly recorded from the Okhotsk Sea. |
