ABSTRACT. Based on new material, three new species and one new subspecies of the genus Paramoera are described: P. staudei sp.n., P. stepaniae sp.n., P. nataliae sp.n. and P. erimoensis sakhalinensis ssp.n. from littoral zone and estuaries of Sakhalin Island, bringing the total to 5 congeneric species in this region. The new subgenus Dentomoera is erected to receive the three species from Sea of Japan previously described by A.I. Bulyčeva [1952], A. Hirayama [1990] and T.W. Jung with co-authors [2016]. The key to the north Pacific species of the genus Paramoera is provided. Cladistic analysis of morphological relationships within North Pacific species of genus Paramoera is implemented. Evolutionary and biogeographic trends are discussed.
KEY WORDS: new species, new subspecies, taxonomy, cladistic analysis, Sakhalin Island.
