Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the species composition and distribution patterns of intertidal fishes from the Shandong Peninsula, China from August 2006 to September 2007. The collected fishes were composed of 28 species, belonging to 21 genera, 14 families and 6 orders. Among them, the family Gobiidae was most abundant in both the number of species and individuals, while two species including Hexagrammos agrammus and Sebastes schlegelii were caught in large quantities of young fishes. In this study, Sebastes koreanus and Porocottus leptosomus known as Korean endemic species so far were collected in the Shandong Peninsula, therefore it should be revised that these two species were distributed on the North Yellow Sea and owned by both China and Korea.

2006년 8월부터 2007년 9월까지 4회에 걸쳐 중국 산둥반도의 조수웅덩이로부터 어류를 채집하여 서식어종과 분포유형을 조사하였다. 조사기간 동안 채집된 어류는 모두 6목 14과 21속 28종이었고, 이 가운데 망둑어과 어류가 종수와 개체수에서 우점하였다. 모래지역에서 숭어와 가숭어, 문치가자미의 유어들이 주로 채집되었고, 자갈과 바위지역에서는 조피볼낙과 노래미의 유어 그리고 점베도라치가 우점하였다. 한편 지금까지 한국 고유종으로 알려진 고려실횟대와 황해볼낙이 본 조사 해역에서 채집되었다. 따라서 이 2종의 어류는 한국 서해안의 태안뿐만 아니라, 중국의 산둥반도에 서식하는 것이 확인됨으로서 황해 고유종으로 수정됨이 타당하다.
