A new polynoid species Tenonia elegans sp.n. is described from the shelf of north east Sakhalin Island. Till now the genus Tenonia remained monotypical. It is recorded for the first time for Sea of Okhotsk. The detailed description of the new species is given and its differences from a closely related species are shown: anterior pair of eyes situated in front of widest point of prostomium; the presence of papillae on antennae, palps and cirri; tentaculophores with 3–4 stout, curved setae on anterior face. This new species differs also from T. priops in possessing smaller sizes of eyes and less numerous setae in parapodia.
