In the Bay of Pos'et, Sea of Japan, 171 species of marine nematodes were collected, 24 of which are illustrated and described as new in this paper. They are: Oxystomina elegans n.sp., 0. orientalis n.sp., Halalaimus leptoderma n.sp.,Tycnodora rectispiculata n.sp., Viscosia epapillosa n.sp., V. stenostoma n.sp.,Lauratonema minuta n.sp., Sabatieria possjetica n.sp., Dorylaimopsis peculiaris n.sp., Gramophonema achaeta n.sp., Spilophorella bidentata n.sp., S. unidentata n.sp., Hypodontolaimus golikovi n.sp., Chromadora tridenticulata n.sp.,Monoposthia latiannulata n.sp., Axonolaimus seticaudatus n.sp., Parodontophora marisjaponici n.sp., Araeolaimus parvibulbosus n.sp., Metalaimus pumilus n.sp.,Terschellingia glabricutis n.sp., T. minima n.sp., Penzancia longispicula n.sp.,Paramonhystera tschislenkoi n.sp., and Theristus inaequispiculatus n.sp. These species, all common and numerous (up to 219,000 specimens of one species in a m2 were collected in different months in 4 zones differing by their hydrological regime and subdivided into 10 biocoenoses determined by the' prevalent macrobenthos. An ecological analysis based mainly on the numbers of species and individuals, sea-bed type, temperature, season, associated vegetation and on the system, proposed by Wieser, 1953 [see H/A 22, 80a] failed to produce a clear-cut pattern of the ecological distribution of the nematode fauna.
