Outline of Final Research Achievements	Our knowledge on the marine tardigrade fauna of northern Japan was enriched by the survey conducted as a part of this study. Among the collected species, those found from at least two localities were subjects of investigating the intra-specific diversities. The magnitude of intra-specific variations differed depending on the taxa.
