Abstract

A single specimen (351.1 mm SL) of the sleek unicornfish, Naso hexacanthus, belonging to Acanthuridae was firstly collected from the coastal waters of Jeju Island, Korea. The species is characterized by having brownish vertical bands on the dorsal fin and two pale purple bony plates on caudal peduncle. We add this species to the Korean fish fauna and propose its new Korean name, "Nam-bang-pyo-mun-jwi-chi."

농어목 양쥐돔과(Acanthuridae)에 속하는 Naso hexacanthus 1개체(표준체장 351.1 mm)가 제주 북부연안에서 정치망으로 처음 채집되었다. 이 종은 등지느러미에 갈색 수직 무늬가 있고 미병부에 있는 두개의 골질판은 연한 보라색을 띠는 것이 특징이며, 이 종의 한국명을 "남방표문쥐치"라고 하였다.
