This report presents taxonomic descriptions for the Pliocene and early Pleistocene deep-sea ostracods at Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 346 Site U1426 on the Oki Ridge in the marginal sea. We found 23 species and 12 genera in discrete core samples. The ostracods constitute taxa that dwell under the Tsushima Warm Current and the Japan Sea Intermediate-Proper Water. We present taxonomic summaries of ostracod species distribution and ecology in addition to scanning electron microscopic images. ¹ Yamada, K., Kuroki, K., and Yamaguchi, T., 2017.
