Abstract

The present faunistic study, on the marine harpacticoids of Chindo Island, Korea was based on the materials collected from various habitats during the periods from October 23-24 in 1993and July 23-25 in 1994. As a result of examining the specimens, 9 species or subspecies of 6 families were identified , of which 6 species or subspecies were newly recorded from Korea : Tachidius (Tachidius) discipes Giesbrecht, 1881 : T.(Neotachidius) triangularis Shen and Tai, 1963 ; Scutellidium longicauda acheloides Ito, 1976 ; Alteutha depressa (Baird, 1837) ; Amonardia normani (Brady, 1872) ; Onychocamptus bengalensis (Sewell, 1934).

1993년 10월 23-24일과 1994년 7월 23-25일의 2회에 걸쳐 진도의 7개 지소에서 채집한 해양 하르팍티쿠스류를 검토한 결과 6과 8속 9종 및 아종이 동정되었다. 이 중 6종[Tachidius (Tachidius) discipes Giesbrecht, 1881; T.(Neotachidius) triangularis Shen and Tai, 1963; Scutellidium longicauda acheloides Ito. 1976; Alteutha depressa(Baird, 1837); Amonardia normani(Brady, 1872); Onychocamptus bengalensis(Sewell, 1934)]은 한국에서 처음으로 보고되는 종으로, 분류학적으로 고찰하는 한편 도판을 작성하였다.
