During the course of a study on oceanic cephalopods eaten by longnose lancetfish, Alepisaurus ferox, in the Tropical Indian and Pacific Oceans, two species of the genus Onykia LESUEUR, 1821,were found. As this genus has been monotypic, these two have hitherto been undescribed. One of them seems to be conspecific with a squid inadequately identified by myself (1968) and, subsequently, described (but given no name) by RANCUREL (1970). The other one is sympatric with the former. I wish to express my gratitude to Mr. Kiyoshi FUJITA, Tokyo University of Fisheries, for his kind offer of extensive collection of Alepisaurus stomach contents at my disporsal. Thanks are also due to Mrs. Pauline DAYARANTHA, Department of Fisheries, Sri-Lanka, and Mr. Shin-ichi TSUKADA, Tokai University, for their help in sorting and measuring the specimens under study.
