In order to understand the spawning and larval development of Perinereis aibuhitensis for the effective seedling production, the influence of water temperature on spawning induction, egg and larval development of the worm were investigated from October 30, 1989 to October 30, 1990. Main spawning period was from July through September, and average diameter of mature eggs was $220\mu m$. The relationship between the adult weight (Wt) and the number of spawned eggs (NS) was given as follws : NS=48635.589Wt1.3044 (r=0.8572). Adult males and females died immediately after spawning. Trochophore larvae developed 12 hours after fertilization, and hatched out after 56 hours.

Based on a single specimen collected from the northern coastal waters of Jeju Island, we described Hemiramphus far as the first record from Korea. The specimen shows a elongated body with a prolonged lower jaw, 13 dorsal fin rays, 11 anal fin rays, 36 predorsal scales, and silvery white body with five black bars laterally and yellowish color on posterior part of lower jaw, tips of dorsal fin and upper caudal lobe. "Geom-mu-neui-hag-gong-chi" is proposed as a new Korean name for the species.

To detect birnavirus from cultured marine fish, RT-PCR assay was developed. This method was specific for aquatic birnaviruses that include IPNV Sp., IPNV Ab, IPNV VR-299 and MBV Y6. The birnavirus gene was detected (birnavirus positive samples detected 46/50) from clinical samples signed with abdominal distension and overall darkening even though the samples gave negative results in virus isolation (birnavirus isolate with CHSE-214 cell showed 12/50).

We described the first record of Callogobius shunkan from Korea, based on two specimens (54.9~66.1 mm in standard length) collected from the southern coastal waters of Jejudo Island. These specimens were characterized by prominent papillae ridges on the head, including postnasal and postorbital rows, well-developed pelvic frenum, dark brownish head, scattered whitish flecks on the body, and three blackish spots on the basal portion of dorsal fins. We proposed a new Korean name, "Ju-reum-mang-dug" for the species.

A natural intergeneric hybrid between Rhodeus pseudosericeus and Acheilognathus signifer was collected in their sympatric area, the Jucheongang (stream), the Namhangang (river), Korea. Morphological characters as well as mitochondrial cytochrome b (mt-cyb) gene were investigated to confirm the natural hybrid origin. In the comparison of morphological characters, the natural hybrid appeared to have intermediate characters between two parental species in several key characters such as the band of dorsal fins, the color pattern of body, and the body spot and stripe. Also, the collected specimen had an incomplete lateral line with a large number of pored scales. In analysis of mt-cyb gene, it revealed that the maternal species of the natural hybrid appeared to be R. pseudosericeus due to their 100% sequence identity. Thus, such results gave convincing evidence for the occurrence of a natural intergeneric hybrid between Rhodeus pseudosericeus and Acheilognathus signifer.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Spirulina level in the diet on growth and skin color of red- and white-colored fancy carp Cyprinus carpio var. koi at different feeding periods. Five experimental diets (designated as Con, S5, S9, S13 and S17) were prepared to contain 0, 5, 9, 13 and 17% Spirulina. Each experimental diet was fed to two replicate groups of fish (6.6 g/fish) to visual satiation three times a day for 12 weeks. Weight gain and feed efficiency of fish were not affected by dietary Spirulina level. The values of redness ($a^*$), lightness ($L^*$) and yellowness ($b^*$) of the fish skin were influenced by dietary Spirulina level at different feeding period. The $L^*$ value of skin in the fish fed S9, S13 and S17 diets tended to decrease with feeding period. The skin $a^*$ value of the fish increased significantly with feeding period and dietary Spirulina level. The skin $a^*$ value of the fish fed the diets containing 5-17% Spirulina was higher than that of fish fed control diet at 6 and 12 weeks of feeding. The skin $a^*$ value and total carotenoids of the fish fed the S17 diet was the highest among groups. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that dietary inclusion of Spirulina powder could increase the skin redness of red- and white-colored fancy carp.

자바리, Epinephelus bruneus는 제주에서 다금바리로 불리우고, 제주도 남부 연안에서 주로 어획되며, 식용어로서 기호도가 높은 어종이다. 자바리의 자원량 격감과 가격상승으로 양식 산업화를 위한 종묘생산에 기술개발이 요구되는 실정이다. 이 실험에 이용된 자바리 어미는 전장 81.5$\pm$3.5 cm, 체중 7,38$\pm$1.06 kg에서 인공 채란된 난과 정자를 인공 수정방법을 이용하여 얻었다. 알의 직경은 900.11$\pm$2.52 $\mu$m이었고, 유구경은 233.98$\pm$2.48 $\mu$m이었다. 수정란은 수온 $25^{\circ}C$에서 32시간 30분에 부화(50%)되었고, 부화율을 96.76$\pm$0,49%였다. 부화자어는 90일 동안 로티퍼, Artemia nauplii, 인공사료를 공급하였다. 부화 직후의 자어는 전장이 2.02$\pm$0.02 mm이였다. 부화 후 3일째(2,76$\pm$0.08 mm) 난황이 대부분 흡수되고, 입이 열렸다. 개구시 입의 크기는 219$\pm$10 $\mu$m 이었다. 부화 후 3일째 막지느러미 후부에 색소포 침적이 일어났다. 부화 후 11일째(4.12$\pm$0.09 mm) 등지느러미 제2극조와 배지느러미 극이 돌출하였다. 부화 후 17일째(6.10$\pm$0.14 mm) 자어에 있어서 꼬리지느러미, 등지느러미의 기조 부위가 발생하기 시작하였다. 부화 후 54일째(41.12$\pm$l.20 mm) 모든 지느러미의 기조는 대부분 분화되어 성어와 비슷한 체색과 체형을 갖는 치어로 발달하였다. 부화 후 78일째 치어는 전장 55.86$\pm$1.26 mm, 체중 3,64$\pm$0.25 g으로 성장하였다.

Twenty four species belonging to 10 genera and 4 families in the suborder Tetraodontoidei in Korea were reviewed and provisional keys to species, genera and families are provided. Among them available specimens of seventeen species in this taxa collected during 1986 to 1990 from Korean waters were examined and recorded on the morphometric characters, their body color and collection sites. And two species are reported for the first time to Korea with their descriptions and figures : Lagocephallus gloveri Abe et Tabeta, 1983 and L. wheeleri Abe,Tabeta et Kitahama, 1984. Taki/ugu chiηensis Abe, previously recorded from Pusan, Korea as paratype locality but not included in the list of Chyung, 1977, is listed in the present paper with the new korean name, "Chambok". Many of this taxa are also distributed throughout the waters of China and Japan. But it is found that the distribution of three species of genus Takifugu are restricted only to the west coast of Korea as well as to the adjacent waters of China in the Yellow Sea ; T. obscurus, T. flavidus and T. basilevskianus. Taxonomy and distribution of this taxa were discussed with references to the information obtained so far.

During the investigation of fish fauna from the Kokunsan Islands off west coast of Korea from 1989 to 1993, authors confirmed 102 fish species belonging to 81 genera, 50 families and 12 orders. Of these the following 8 species were common : Herengila zunasi, Engraulis japonica, Johnius grypotus, Pholis fangi, Repomucenus ornatipinnis, Chasmichthys gulosus, Tridentiger trigonocephalus, and Cynoglossus joyneri. Of the twelve orders recognized herein, Perciformes, Scorpaeniformes and Pleuronectiformes include approximately 74% of the fish fauna in this area. The largest family is the Gobiidae representing 12 species. Pholis fangi, Repomucenus ornatipinnis, Repomucenus koreanus, Takifugu flavidus and Takifugu obscurus collected are endemic to the Yellow Sea. Fifteen specimens of an unknown Sebastes species was collected. This species resembles Sebastes hubbsi and Sebastes longispinnis, but the species differs from other sebastes species reported in Korea in the number of dorsal fin rays, lateral line pores, gill rakers and in color patterns of body sides.
