Abstract
    Two new species of the tribe Erythropini, Mysidacea, Gibberythrops longicauda and Nakazawaia secunda, are described from Japanese waters. G. longicauda is distinguished from the three known species of the genus by the pair of shorter spines on the apex of telson and the larger number of spines on the endopod of uropod. N. secunda is easily distinguished from the type species by the telson with spines not occupying the whole margin, and therefore the generic diagnosis of Nakazawaia is amended. A key for the identification of the speciesof Gibberythrops is also included.
