[None. Introduction as follows:]
This study continues the surveys off the west coast of Kamchatka Peninsula begun in 1957 and 1958 (Imajima, 1961). They were continued in 1959 by the "Hokuho-maru", a chartered ship of the Hokkaido Regional Fisheries Research Laboratory. Again I had an opportunity to examine the polychaetous annelids in the region. The collections were made at 72 stations by dredging and the worms were found at 29 stations (see Text-fig. 1 and Table 1). These surveys were made to provide data on oecological relationships existing between the benthic fauna and the king crab, Paralithodes camtschatica (Tilesius).
