Abstract

A new shallow-water species of the genus Odontohenricia Rowe and Albertson, 1988 is described from the coast of Rishiri Island, Hokkaido, northeastern Japan. The new species is different from other congeners in having intermarginal series extending 2/3 of the arm length, abactinal spines more than 0.3 mm in length, and oral spines with opaque and serrated tips.
