Specimens of scyllarine species (Decapoda: Scyllaridae: Scyllarinae) were collected using commercial bottom trawl nets from several sites with 50-100 m depths in the shelf water region of the Enshu-nada sea and Tosa Bay along the Pacific coast of Honshu, central Japan. Of these, Bathyarctus chani Hoithuis, 2002 and B. formosasus (Chan and Yu, 1992) are recorded for the first time from Japan while Eduarctus martensii (Preffer, 1881) and Galearctus timidus (Hoithuis, 1960) are poorly known from Japanese waters previously.
