Abstract
The genus Lampeia was previously represented in the Chukchi Sea and th e northwestern Bering Sea by only one species, Lampeia adamsi (MacGini tie, 1959). We found L. adamsi in the Sea of Okhotsk at depths of 65-8 5 m. Additionally, we described two new species from this genus. Lampe ia triangula was found in the Sea of Okhotsk off the west coast of Kam chatka at a depth of 144-214 m, Lampeia posteroresecta off the Kurile Islands near Iturup Island at 180 m and in the Fourth Kurile Strait at 500 m. An expanded description of L. adamsi, including some additiona l data on shell morphology, geographic distribution, and habitat is al so given.
