Two new species of the genus Burmoniscus collinge, 1914, B. ifugaoensis and B. taitii are described from Banaue and adjacent area, mountainous district in the northern Luzon, the Philippines. B. ifugaoensis is morphologically similar to B. novabritannicus(Vandel, 1973) and B. yunnanensis Kwon and Taiti, 1993, but is distinguished by the much elongated distal part of male pleopod 1 exopod and the peculiar setation on the distal part of male pleopod 1 endopod. B. taitii is similar to B. punctatus Taiti, Ferrara and Kwon. 1992 in the shape of male pleopod 1 endopod, but is easily distinguished by the peculiar coloration of male, the morphology of cephalon, and the shorter distal part of male pleopod 1 exopod.

Two species of the genus Burmoniscus Collinge, 1914 (Philosciidae), B. philippinensis and B palawanensis from Palawan Island, the Philippines are described as new. In the family Philosciidae, only a single species, Pseudo-typhloscia alba (Dollfus, 1898), has been recorded from the Philippines. Two species of the genus Burmoniscus Collinge, 1914 (Philosciidae), B. philippinensis and B. palawanensis from Palawan Island, the Philippines are described as new. B. philippinensis is distinguished from its congeners by the shape of telson with straight sides and slightly protruding distal part with acute apex, while B. palawanensis by its peculiar shape of male pleopod 1 endopod.

A new species, Burmoniscus phuketensis, is described from Ko Phuket, Thailand. The new species belongs to the group characterized by male pereopods 1 and 2 with enlarged and flattened carpi, including B. coecus (Budde-Lund, 1895), B. ferrarai (Schumalfuss, 1983), B. mossambicus (Ferrara and Taiti, 1985), B. rowei Taiti and Manicastri, 1988, and B. rakataensis Green, Ferrara and Taiti, 1990. Among them, this new species resembles B. coecus and B. rakataensis in the pigmentless body and the shape of pereonite 7 epimeron with acute postero-lateral corner, but is easily distinguished from both specie by the shape of telson. While the eyes are absent in B. coecus, they are present in this new species.

Two new species of the genus Burmoniscus, B. siamenis and B. phanganensis, are described from Ko Samui and Ko Pha Ngan, Thailand. B. siamenis is similar to B. mauritiensis (Taiti and Ferrara, 1983) in color pattern and the shape of telson, but distinguished by the shape of pereonite 7 with obtuse postero-lateral angle and the peculiar shape of male pleopod 2 endopod with truncated apex. B. phanganensis is close to B. ocellatus Verhoeff, 1928) in the shape of pereonite 7 and telson, but easily distinguished by the peculiar shape of male pleopod 1 endopod with two rows of denticles on caudal surface.
