A new species of Copepoda, Modiolicola avdeevi (Poecilostomatoida, Sabelliphilidae) associated with the bivalve Modiolus difficilis Kuroda and Habe in the Sea of Japan, is described . Although resembling close to Modiolicola bifidus Tanaka, 1961 in the body form, the new species is distinguished from M.bifidus by the more slender antenna, stouter caudal rami and more slender leg 5.

Hemicyclops geminus Stock is synonymized with H. columnaris Humes which is now known as a species of amphi-American distribution. Hemicyclops columnaris Humes, Modiolicola trabalis Humes, and Ostrincola breviseti Ho and Kim are redescribed.
