Abstract

A taxonomic study on the marine sponges was conducted with the materials collected from Chujado Island, Korea during the period June 2001 to May 2005 by SCUBA and hands. They were classified into 63 species, 31 genera, 25 families, seven orders in a class. Among them, Antho (Arcania) manarensis Carter, 1880 and Eurypon lendenfeldi Hentschel, 1912 were newly added to Korean Fauna. Two species, Biemna chujaensis and B. jeolmyongensis, were new to science.
