Abstract

A single specimen of the family Echeneidae was collected from the coast of the East Sea, Korea. It was identified as Phtheirichthys lineatus by having a sucker with 10 pairs of disc laminae, 1+13 gill rakers and 40 vertebrae. A key to the family Echeneidae from Korea is provided. We propose a new Korean name "Yeol-jul-bbal-pan-i" for the species.

우리나라의 동해 연안에서 채집된 빨판상어과 어류 1개체를 동정한 결과 지금까지 우리나라에서는 보고되지 않은 Phtheirichthys lineatus (Menzies)로 확인되었다. 본종은 외형상 Echeneis naucrates와 유사하지만 빨판의 판상체가 10개이고, 새파수가 1+13개이며, 척추골수가 40개인 점에서 전자와 쉽게 구별되었다. 본 종의 신한국명은 "열줄빨판이"라고 명명하였다.
