We surveyed Ishikawa, Gifu, and Toyama prefectures in Japan, from October 27 to 30, 2016, to collect wild azuki bean (Vigna angularis (Willd.) Ohwi et H. Ohashi var. nipponensis (Ohwi) Ohwi et H. Ohashi) and wild soybean (Glycine soja Siebold et Zucc.). We surveyed 46 collection sites and collected 48 accessions, among which 43 were wild azuki bean and five were wild soybean specimens. As in our last survey, in 2015, wild azuki bean was prevalent in the lower lands of western Japan, that look onto the Sea of Japan, while it was often found in the relatively higher lands (300-700 m. a s. l.) of eastern Japan, looking onto the Pacific Ocean. Although we could not collect many wild soybean specimens, one accession was collected from a riverbed, which might therefore, have flooding tolerance.
