Domecia glabra and T. nigrolineata were reported for the first time in the Kochi Prefecture. In addition, the record for T. nigrolineata represented the most northely record for this species. The specimens of T. glaberrima collected from outside Tosa Bay represented the second record of this species from Kochi Prefecture.
