Eulalia gemina, a new phyllodocid species, is described from intertidal rocks at Shirahama, Honshu, Japan. It is characterized by a specific pigmentation pattern and by a unique combination of characters. The new species is compared to a series of other Eulalia Savigny in Lamarck, 1822, which it approaches in pigmentation patterns, body shape, and/or shape of the dorsal cirri. Eulalia ornata Saint-Joseph, 1888 and E. myriacycla (Schmarda, 1861) are considered most similar. Eulalia pacifica (Imajima, 1964), new combination, is transferred from Steggoa Bergström, 1914.
