Our examination of specimens of Deimatidae from the South China Sea and the Mariana fore-arc area revealed three new species, which were described as <jats:italic>Oneirophanta idsseica<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>sp. nov.<\/jats:bold>, <jats:italic>Oneirophanta brunneannulata<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>sp. nov.<\/jats:bold>, and <jats:italic>Oneirophanta lucerna<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>sp. nov.<\/jats:bold> These species were distinguished from each other and from congeners by the arrangement, and number of ventrolateral tube feet and ossicle types. We also reported <jats:italic>Oneirophanta mutabilis mutabilis<\/jats:italic> Th\u00e9el, 1879 for the first time from the Mariana fore-arc area, and we recorded <jats:italic>Deima validum validum<\/jats:italic> for the second time from the South China Sea. The taxonomy of these new species and new records is discussed, and a phylogenetic analysis based on a concatenated dataset of 16S and COI genes was conducted. Additionally, the inter- and intraspecific genetic divergences we calculated among deimatid species. The results support the assignment of these new species to the genus <jats:italic>Oneirophanta<\/jats:italic> and their separation from congeners. A description of the main morphological characters of <jats:italic>Oneirophanta<\/jats:italic> species is also provided. The data were collected from geographically diverse areas and suggest that species of Deimatidae were abundant in the Pacific Ocean and occupied a wide range of depths.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3897\/zookeys.1195.115913","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,20]],"date-time":"2024-03-20T17:09:36Z","timestamp":1710954576000},"page":"309-335","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Three new species and one new record of Deimatidae (Echinodermata, Holothuroidea, Synallactida) discovered in the South China Sea and the Mariana fore-arc area using integrative taxonomic methods"],"prefix":"10.3897","volume":"1195","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-9787-033X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Yunlu","family":"Xiao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5429-9851","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Haibin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2258","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"115913_B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1029\/AR011p0049"},{"key":"115913_B2","first-page":"259","article-title":"Deep Sea Holothurians.","volume":"29","author":"Billett","year":"1991","journal-title":"Oceanography and Marine Biology"},{"key":"115913_B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.11646\/zootaxa.1276.1.1"},{"key":"115913_B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3897\/zookeys.1113.82172"},{"key":"115913_B5","first-page":"357","article-title":"Echinodermes: Holothuries.","volume":"91","author":"Cherbonnier","year":"1981","journal-title":"S\u00e9rie A, Zoologie"},{"issue":"3","key":"115913_B6","first-page":"43","article-title":"The holothurians of the western part of the Atlantic Ocean.","volume":"71","author":"Deichmann","year":"1930","journal-title":"Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard College"},{"key":"115913_B7","first-page":"183","article-title":"Report on the Holothurians, collected by the Harvard-Havana Expeditions 1938 and 1939, with a revision of the Molpadonia of the Atlantic Ocean.","volume":"14","author":"Deichmann","year":"1940","journal-title":"Memorias de la Sociedad Cubana de Historia Natural \u2018Felipe Poey\u2019"},{"key":"115913_B8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.11646\/zootaxa.4567.2.5"},{"key":"115913_B9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5479\/si.00963801.32-1555.637"},{"key":"115913_B10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/sysbio\/syq010"},{"key":"115913_B11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5962\/bhl.title.79346"},{"key":"115913_B12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1515\/9783111443935"},{"key":"115913_B13","first-page":"480","article-title":"The taxonomy and zoogeography of the deep-sea holothurians, in their evolutionary aspects.","volume":"5","author":"Hansen","year":"1967","journal-title":"Studies in Tropical Oceanography"},{"key":"115913_B14","first-page":"1","article-title":"Scientific results of the Danish Deep-Sea Expedition Round the World 1950\u201352.
