The SYLLIDAE of Japan are named with 77 species and 7 subspecies in 20 genera, 5 subgenera and 4 subfamilies; 2 others in 2 genera are not determined specifically.One new genus, 1 new subgenus, 31 new species or subspecies and 5 new combinations are given.21 species or subspecies are new to Japanese waters.One genus, Geminosyllis is erected from SYLLINAE and one new subgenus, Regulatus is named in Autolytus.46 species or subspecies, 53.4%, are currently known only from Japan, 40 others are known also from other areas.OKUDA (1938) reported from Susaki near Shimoda, Izu Peninsula, four previously named species without diagnosis or description.OKUDA and YAMADA (1954) reported Typosyllis variegata from Matsushima Bay, and UTINOMI (1956) newly described Haplosyllis anthogorgicola from Anthogorgia bocki, a gorgonacean, from Seto.In the monographic work of IMAJIMA and HARTMAN (1964) 41 species of SYLLIDAE, including 2 new genera, 3 new subgenera, 11 new species, 2 new subspecies and 1 new combination were reported, and 6 were newly added to the Japanese fauna.A few of these are newly combined in this report.The SYLLIDAE occurring in Japanese coastal areas are here recognized for 84 species or subspecies plus 2 undetermined, in 20 genera and 5 subgenera.Most of the descriptions of SYLLIDAE are based on collections obtained from intertidal zones, along algal overgrown rocky shores, where Marine Laboratories of Universities have operated.These areas include Akkeshi
