초록

한국산 뱀장어목 Ophichthidae과 어류 7속 14종의 동종이명, 분포, 출현기록, 종 검색표 등을 정리한 종 목록표를 제시하였다. 또한, Ophichthidae과 어류의 국명이 파충류의 Hydridae과와 유사하여 Ophichthidae과 어류의 국명을 "바다뱀과 어류"에서 "바다뱀장어과 어류"로 개칭하고, 이 과에 속하는 종들의 국명 변경도 함께 제안한다.

A checklist of snake eels (Ophichthidae) from Korea is presented including information, such as synonyms, distribution, occurrence records and key to species of 7 genera and 14 species. Also, we suggest change of the Korean names for the snake eels (Ophichthidae) "Ba-da-baem-gwa" to "Ba-da-baem-jang-eo-gwa", and it's members, because Korean names of snake eels (Ophichthidae) is similar to those of sea snake (Hydridae).
