A record of the occurrence of Lucensosergia lucens is hereby added to the literature due to the present finding off Cape Nomo and off the Goto Islands, Nagasaki, western Japan. The sampling areas are connected to the presumptive paleo-East China Sea Gulf area in which the species has evolved. The species occurs in the western Pacific only; from Suruga Bay, Japan to off Tung-kang, south-western Taiwan, and presumably off Borneo, off the Philippines, and off New Guinea. Distribution at the latter three areas by the “Dana” records is needed to be reconfirmed by sampling.
