초록

중국 상해수산대학에 소장된 어류 표본 중에 남중국해에서 채집된 1개체의 표본(295 mm TL)을 근거로 하여 홍어속(Okamejei) 어류의 신종을 기재하였다. 홍어속 어류는 북서태평양에 6종, 인도양에 3종이 서식하여 전세계에 9종이 유효하다. 호주 해역에는 홍어속의 미기재종 1종과 근연종으로 살홍어속(Dipturus)으로 소속이 변경된 3종이 서식한다. Okamejei mengae sp. nov.는 문연골 길이가 두장의 54.3%로 주둥이가 짧고, 꼬리부가 전장의 48.5%로 길고, 미극이 3열, 신경두개의 상생체공의 전단부가 명확하게 구별되는 점 등으로 홍어속에 포함된다. 이 종은 복추골이 23개로서 적고, 등지느러미 앞까지의 미추골이 50개로 많으며, 가슴지느러미의 복사연골이 96개로 많은 특징 등으로 동일속의 9종 및 근연종 등 13종과 명확히 구별된다. 또한 뾰족하게 돌출된 주둥이, 양안간격이 6.7배로 긴 두장, 넓은 꼬리, 좁은 제1등지느러미와 제2등지느러미의 거리, 짧은 제2등지느러미 뒤의 길이, 체반 등쪽에 작고 짙은 갈색 반점이 전체적으로 분포하지만 큰 반점은 없고, 배쪽의 로렌치니 병상 기관은 가슴지느러미의 후담기연골(metapterygium)의 뒤까지 분포하며, 견갑오훼연골이 높은 특징을 가지고 있다. 신종과 전 세계 홍어속 및 근연종 등 13종과의 특징 비교표를 작성하였으며, 북서태평양에 서식하는 7종에 대한 새로운 분류 검색표를 제시하였다.

A new species of the rajid genus Okamejei is described from a single specimen (295 mm TL) from off Shantou, Gwangdong in the South China Sea. The new species differs from all other congeners in the following combination of characters: snout pointed, dorsal head length 6.7 times interorbital width, tail moderately wide and long, its length 48.5% TL, interdorsal distance less than length of first dorsal fin base, postdorsal tail short as 5.8% TL, small evenly distributed dark brownish spots, without ocelli on dorsal surface of disc, pores of ampullae of Lorenzini on ventral surface distributed from snout tip to distal end of metapterygium, scapulocoracoid high, its height about 1.4 times rear corner height, trunk vertebrae 23, predorsal tail vertebrae 50 and pectoral fin radials 96.
