None. Begins: "During the course of nearly a century and a half, from its first record in 1791 to the present day, this interesting genus Ozobranchus de Quatrefages has been represented by only six species recorded by various authors at different times. This synopsis is mainly intended to help those who are interested in the genus, and who might have occasion to come across it. A list of references of the scanty but complete literature available on the genus up to date is given at the end for the guidance of future workers, and an attempt is also made herein to clarify the systematic position of an ill-defined species, viz., Ozobranchus papillatus Kaburaki (1921) on the basis of certain morphological characters.
