MATERIAL. AMK-22-2316, 55.6013°N 167. 384°E – 55.5833°N 167.4076°E,Sigsbee trawl,depth 4294– 4200 m, two specimens collected.

REMARKS. Only three specimens of this genus were known from Northwest Pacific. They were reported by Wassilieff (1908) from the Sea of Japan from 510–800 m and with some hesitation assigned to Bolocera tuediae (see Carlgren, 1949). Two other species are known from Northeast Pacific: B. pannosa McMurrich, 1893 reported off California from 757 m, and B. kensmithi Eash-Loucks et Fautin, 2012 , described from 1804–4100 m from Northeast Pacific Ocean, both known from original descriptions only. Our specimens appear to be distinct from known species of Bolocera .
