AB  - The genus <i>Chone</i> Krøyer, 1856, and related genera of the family Sabellidae (Polychaeta) are common members of softbottom communities. Four new species from Japanese waters are described herein: <i>Dialychone okudai</i> n. sp., from Hokkaido, <i>Paradialychone katsuuraensis</i> n. sp., from Katsuura, Boso Peninsula; <i>P. edomae</i> n. sp., from Tokyo Bay and <i>Jasmineira kikuchii</i> n. sp., from Ariake Sound, Kyushu. A re-description is also provided for a poorly known species <i>C. cincta</i> Zachs, 1933. This species, originally described from the Peter the Great Bay, Eastern Russia was recorded in this study from Amakusa and Ariake Sound, Kyushu and transferred to <i>Paradialychone</i>. <i>Jasmineira kikuchii</i> is the first record of the genus from Japan. The Japanese species described here are compared with other conspecifics of the world and a key for the sabellid genera with a glandular girdle on chaetiger 2 and thoracic acicular uncini is provided.
