Abstract

A taxonomic study for clarifying the decapod fauna of Gejedo Island, Korea was performed. Seventy nine species in 28 families were identified through the present investigation and of which 9 species of shrimps, 7 species of anomurans, and 39 species of crabs are newly added to the decapod fauna of this area. With the previously known 40 species, a total of 93 decapod species from this island and its adjacent islets are listed, and Pugettia quadridens intermedia Sakai, 1939 is redescribed with illustrations. The zoogeographical aspects of Geojedo Island are also discussed based on the composition of geographical forms of brachyuran decapods.

거제도의 십각류상을 밝히기 위한 분류학적 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 28과 79종이 동정되었으며, 이 가운데 새우류 9종, 집게류 7종, 게류 39종이 거제도의 십각류상에 추가되었다. 과거기록을 포함하여 총 93종의 분류목록을 마련하였으며, 기재없이 기록만 있었던 중간뿔물맞이게 (Pugettia quadridens intermedia Sakai, 1983)를 재기재 하였다. 또한 게류 64종의 분포형과 종의 출현양상을 근거로 거제도의 동물지리적 양상을 논하였다.
