Description
Summary:Abstract: Among the benthos materials collected from near Syowa Station, Breid Bay and Gunnerus Bank, Antarctica, four species of the lamellariid gastro-pods were found. The descriptions on a new species Marseniopsis syowaensis n. sp., and two known species, M. conica and M. mollis are given. A single specimen considered to be a new species from Breid Bay is described. Some ecological bearings of the lamellariid gastropods in the Antarctic are discussed. 1.
