Abstract

Some scyphomedusae were collected from the coasts of Ilgwang, Jeju Harbour, Yeosu, Yokjido Is. and Munyeodo Is. in Korea from May to Nov. 2004. They were indentified into Pelagia noctiluca Forskal, 1775 and Cyanea nozakii Kishinouye, 1891 of the order Semaeostomeae and Nemopilema nomurai Kishinouye, 1922 of the order Rhizostomeae in the class Scyphozoa. They are new to the Korean fauna.
