Samples were obtained from broodstok in May, 2010, while naturally fertilized embryos were maintained, and the process of skeletal development was observed from larvae and juvenile. Prelarvae immediately after hatching showed an average total length of $6.85{\pm}0.63mm$ (n =5), Premaxillary and dentary were ossified, parasphenoid was ossified in the cranium, and centrum and caudal bone did not ossify. Prelarvae showed ossification with maxillary, articular, and epihyal, and branchiostegal rays of hyoid arch were ossified at 2 to 3 days after hatching with an average total length of $7.25{\pm}0.28mm$ (n=5). The vertebrae began to ossify in the direction of the tail, and neural spine began to ossify above the ossified vertebra. Postlarvae showed ossification of lateral ethmoid, alisphenoid, parietal, and caudal skeleton in the cranium when the average total length was $9.00{\pm}1.53mm$ (n=5) in 6 days after hatching. At 40 days after hatching, postlarvae ossified maxillary in the cranium, and ossified endopterygoid and ectopterygoid, etc. in the palate, when the average length of $23.3{\pm}0.28mm$ (n=5). At 120 days after hatching, with the average length was $37.5{\pm}2.83mm$ (n=5), caudal skeleton had one additional epural bone ossification, resulting in ossification of a total of 3 epural bone to complete ossification of all spicules.

To investigate the relationships between ocean environmental characteristics and thechange of the catch, we analyzed various environmental factors such as mean temperature, salinity, current vectors, lunar day and wind vectors from 1995 to 1996 and the catch fluctuation of Hanlim set net from 1994 to 1996. The results are as follow ; 1) The proportion of fishes caught in Hanlim set net is highest for horse mackere1 ($69.2\%$) and is followed by common mackerel ($18.4\%$), hair tail ($5.6\%$), squid ($2.7\%$) and rabbit fish ($1.4\%$) in order. Two peaks in the monthly catch appeared in June and October in the operation period of May- December. 2) The flow direction was northward in flood time and southeastward in ebb time around the Hanlim set net. Thus, the vortical mixing of sea water was active and continued for more than 3 hours. In addition, mean daily temperature was low due to the presence of middle and bottom water in offshore. Increase in salinity or high salinity of sea water provides a favorable condition for catches of fishes. Catches in the first quarter and the last quarter of the moon were larger than that in full moon and the last of the month. In particular, when south or southeasterly wind velocity reaches about 3$\~$6.5 m/s, the possibility of catches increases.

Liparis ingens (Gilbert et Burke) is a demersal fish belonging to Liparidae, widely distributed in the coastal waters of the east coast of Korea. On January 16, 1986, mature adults of Liparis ingens were captured by a demersal gill net near Chongdongchin-ri, Kangwon-do, Korea. The authors stripped eggs and milt, and fertilized on the ship. The eggs were incubated and the larvae were reared in laboratory. The eggs of this species are demersal and adhesive, and are pale yellow, containing many oil globules. Egg diameters were varied from 1.55 to 1.65 mm. The hatching took place in ca. 747 hours after fertilization at the water temperature of $7.09{\sim}10.99^{\circ}C$ and salinity $30.62{\sim}33.98\%0$. The newly hatched larvae were elongate in shape and $4.40{\sim}4.85mm$ in total length with $12{\sim}13$ (abdominal)+40(caudal)=$52{\sim}53$ myomeres. Many melanophores were distributed on the lower jaw, pectoral fins, yolk sac, and ventral line of the tail part. Three days after hatching, the larvae reached 5.15 to 5.25 mm in total length, and the yolk sac was almost absorbed. Some melanophores appeared on the back of auditory vesicles. Seven days after hatching, the larvae attained $5.75{\sim}5.85mm$ in total length.

Lyophilized powder (BP2FS) of soybeans fermented with Bacillus polyfermenticus KJS-2 (B. polyfermenticus KJS-2) exhibited in vitro antibacterial activities against eight pathogenic bacteria. BP2FS was used as a fodder additive for Oplegnathus fasciatus (0. fasciatus) culture. One group (UFD) of O. fasciatus was fed a commercial fodder, while another group (FD) was fed the same fodder, but including BP2FS ($6{\times}10^{4}$ cfu $g^{-1}$ fodder), two times daily for 120 days. The mean body weight of the FD group (67.29${\pm}$12.62 g) was higher than that of the UFD group (56.56${\pm}$8.21 g) after 120 days. The survival rate of FD was 80% compared to 40% for the UFD group. Cumulative mortalities in the FD and UFD groups were 18.95% and 60.98% respectively. B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 was isolated from the intestines of the FD group and the number of viable colonies was estimated to be $1.04{\times}10^{4}$ cfu $g^{-1}$. Iridovirus and Vibrio vulnificus was detected in the organs of the UFD group but not in the FD group. All of the infected fish showed typical clinical symptoms of hemorrhage in their tail fins. Dissection of the infected internal organs revealed liver congestion and spleen enlargement - typical symptoms caused by iridovirus infection. These results clearly show that BP2FS is highly beneficial in preventing O. fasciatus from iridovirus infection.

In the process of tuna for food, the unprocessed parts of the whole fish range from 30 to 35%, which are mostly used as animal feed stuff, and wasted. Thus, preliminary study on the recycling of the by-product was done to ultimately produce highly valuable products. The study was peformed on skin, skin flesh, tail flesh, dark flesh and abdominal flesh of the tuna. First, crude protein was the most abundant in the skin at 26.31%. About 21% of the crude protein were found in the other samples. Second, crude fat was greatly obtained in the skin at 15.58%. Interestingly, only 0.75% of crude fat was found in the dark flesh. Third, vitamin C and vitamin B group were highly measured in the abdominal flesh and the dark flesh, respectively. Importantly, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22 : 6 $\omega$ -3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C22 : 6 $\omega$ -3) which are highly unsaturated fatty acids, were abundant in the skin and skin flesh. To determine the effect of high temperature to the unprocessed parts, the samples were exposed to steam for 30 min. After this processing, 15-methylhexadecanoic acid (i-17 : 0) were in- creased in the skin flesh and the dark flesh. Furthermore, 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid (3-OH 14 : 0), heptadecanoic acid (17 : 0), 2-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid (2-OH 16 : 0) and nonadecanoic acid (19 : 0) hat were not found before with steam were detected. The DHA and EPA in the dark flesh and the DHA in the skin were stable, respectively, even after the treatment.

The ultrastructure of spermatogenesis and sperm in Cichlasoma managuensis belonging to Cichlidae was investigated by light and electron microscopes. The testis of C. managuensis contained numerous testicular cysts, and spermatogenesis was synchronized in these testicular cysts. In the case of spermatogonia, the nucleus was comparatively large ellipsoidal, and mitochondria showed a marked development. The size of primary spermatocyte was smaller than that of spermatogonia, and that of secondary spermatocyte was smaller than that of primary spermatocyte. The chromatin of spermatocyte was highly condensed according to their development. The nucleus with electron-dense was round shape. In spermiogenesis, flagella started to be formed and chromatin was more condensed. The mitochondria were rearranged in a middle piece. The sperm was formed by loss of cytoplasm. The head of mature sperm was a spherical shape and had not acrosome. The microtubules of flagella were arranged 9+2 structure. Also, the tail of sperm have lateral fins.

The samples used in this study were collected on two occasions (April 21 and May 16, 2021) from Liobagrus mediadiposalis and spawned egg masses located under rocks in Daeseocheon, Yeongdeok-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do. Fertilized eggs ranged in size from 3.30~3.92 (average 3.57±0.19) mm (n=30), and it took 152~155 hours to hatch at water temperatures of between 17.0 and 20.0℃. Newly hatched larvae immediately post-hatching had a total length of 6.43~6.67 (6.55±0.07) mm (n=30), and were characterized by the retention of a yolk sac and an incompletely open mouth and anus, consistent with the yolk. On the 9 days post-hatching, the postflexion larvae had grown to length of between 11.0~13.8 (12.3±0.70) mm (n=30), and the caudal bone at the tip of the tail was bent upwards at an angle of 45°, thereby indicating the transition to the late larval growth stage. On the 16 days post-hatching, the total length of juvenile had increased to between 15.8~18.2 (16.8±0.77) mm (n=30), and the number of fins reached a fixed number of 8 dorsal, 17 anal, and 8 pelvic fins. On the basis of the findings of this study, we were able to confirm differences in the size of hatching larvae and fin mottle patterns in the early life history of related species.
