Abstract

Six specimens (151.4~171.2 mm in standard length) of the poacher Aspidophoroides monopterygius were collected by Danish seine net in the coastal waters off Samcheok and Gangneung, the East Sea, Korea. This species is characterized by a slender body, one dorsal fin, terminal mouth, no barbel on the head, and a pair of nasal spines on the snout. It differs from Anoplagonus occidentalis Lindberg in having a nasal spine. We describe it as the first record within the Korean fish fauna, and propose the new Korean name "Ak-eo-jul-go-gi" for this species.

쏨뱅이목 날개줄고기과에 속하는 Aspidophoroides monopterygius 6개체 (표준체장 151.4~171.2 mm)가 강원도 삼척과 강릉 연안에서 동해구외끌이중형저인망에 의해 채집되었다. 본 종은 긴 체형, 1개의 등지느러미, 입이 몸의 전방에 위치, 두부에 수염이 없으며 주둥이에 몸의 후방을 향하는 날카로운 비골극이 있는 것이 특징이다. 본 종은 민어치(Anoplagonus occidentalis)와 형태적으로 매우 유사하지만, 비골극을 가지는 점에서 차이가 있다. 우리나라에서 처음 보고되는 본 종의 국명으로 "악어줄고기"를 제안한다.
