The first zoeal stage of Pachycheles hertwigi Balss is described and illustrated. Its morphological characteristics are compared with those of other known species of Pachycheles. The first zoeas of P. hertwigi and P. stevensii are very similar, but they can be distinguished from each other by the length of carapace spine and the size of antennal exopod spinules.

A pagurid hermit crab, Pagurus rathbuni that was collected from the deep water of the East Sea, Korea, has been newly recorded in the Korean fauna. The present record extends the geographic distribution of the species to Korean waters in the East Sea and extends the bathymetric range to 500 m. Morphological and distributional accounts of this species are presented with illustrations.

The complete larval development of Rhinolithodes wosnessenskii Brandt, 1848 is described, based on laboratory rearing. The species has four zoeal stages and a megalopa. The zoeas of R. wosnessenskii are readily distinguished from all other described zoeas of the subfamily Lithodinae by having a middorsal spine of the posterior margin of the carapace.

A pagurid crab carrying half of a bivalve shell was collected from Jejudo Island and identified as Porcellanopagurus nihonkaiensis. A diagnosis with illustrations of this specimen is presented. Although, Komai and Takeda (2006) reported this species as rare and known only from Japan, its range is now extended to Korean waters. At present, it is the only species of the genus Porcellanopagurus represented in Korean waters.

The first zoeal stage of Enosteoides ornata (Stimpson, 1858) is described and illustrated in detail. Its morphological characteristics are compared with those of other known species of the family Porcellanidae. In the family Porcellanidae its diagnostic characteristics are the exopod of an antenna armed with a seta and five spinules and the coxa of the first maxilliped having two setae. The former characteristic can be seen in most of the genus Petrolisthes zoeas, while the latter usually in the genus Pachycheles zoea. The Enosteoides ornata seems to be p1aced intermediately between the genus Pachycheles and the genus Petrolisthes based on the zoeal morphology.

Two species of squat lobsters, Raymunida formosanus Lin, Chan and Chu, 2004 and Raymunida lineata Osawa, 2005, are newly added to the Korean decapod fauna. The genus Raymunida Macpherson and Machordom, 2000 is also reported for the first time in Korea. It differs morphologically from other Korean genera, Munida and Paramunida, in having the first to third pereopods with epipods and the carpus of the third maxilliped with a distal spine on flexor margin. Illustrations and pictures of these two species are provided with descriptions, and the key to the species of Korean Munidids is also provided.

A pagurid crab, Pagurus erythrogrammus is described and illustrated for the first time from Korean waters. It was collected by SCUBA diving in Seogwipo (Jejudo Island) on 30 May 2013. Its morphology is similar to those of known Korean species of the family Paguridae: Boninpagurus pilosipes, Pagurus nigrivittatus, and Pagurus quinquelineatus. This species, however, it is distinguished by having a developed rostrum, seven rows of spines on dorsal surface of the right palm in male, a row of spines on the medial surface of the dactylus of the third pereopod, 12 long ventral spines of dactylus of the third pereopod, six small spines on the concaved distal margin of telson, and three reddish brown lines on lateral surfaces of propodi of the second and third pereopods.
