In September 2006, Diffalaba vitrea (Sowerby III, 1915) juveniles with shells nearly 3 mm in height were collected in Vostok Bay (Peter the Great Bay, north-western Sea of Japan). A brief data on shell and body morphology of these specimens are presented. D. vitrea differs from known in the southern Russian Far East Diffalaba picta (A. Adams, 1861) conchologically, particularly by more wide spire angle of adult shell. This is the first record of D. vitrea in Russian waters, previously known only from Japan.
