The estuarine Gobiidae $Tridentiger$ $trigonocephalus$, $Chasmichthys$ $dolichognathus$ and $Favonigobius$ $gymnauchen$ were exposed to various heavy metals. As a measure of acute toxicity, the 96h-$LC_{50}$ in the three species exposed to copper, lead, zinc and chromium was 740-990, 1,660-1,980, 6,180-8,490 and 8,830-11,296 ${\mu}gL^{-1}$, respectively. In order of toxicity, the heavy metals were ranked copper>lead>zinc>chromium. The Gobiidae $C.$ $dolichognathus$ was more sensitive to heavy metals than $T.$ $trigonocephalus$ and $F.$ $gymnauchen$.

Twenty five specimens (40.8~58.4 mm SL) of Gymnogobius taranetzi (Family Gobiidae) were collected from the estuary of Samcheok-si and Yangyang-gun, Gangwon-do, Korea. This species is distinguished from other Gymnogobius species by oculoscapular canals not extending anteriorly through interorbital space, but replaced by rows of sensory papillae; oculoscapular canal pore C is absent; some yellow bands on body in female with breeding color. The new Korean name "Dong-hae-nal-mang-duk" is proposed for this species.

The gobiidae, $Tridentiger$ $trigonocephalus$, $Chasmichtthys$ $dolichognathus$ and $Favonigobius$ $gymnauchen$ were reared for 4 weeks under 0~33.6‰ salinity conditions to examine the effects of various salinity on its survival and growth. Survival rate of $C.$ $dolichognathus$ and $F.$ $gymnauchen$ were significantly declined below 3.4‰ and 0‰, respectively. Growth rate of $T.$ $trigonocephalus$ was significantly reduced 0‰ salinity. Growth rate of $C.$ $dolichognathus$ and $F.$ $gymnauchen$ exposed to ${\geq}$13.4‰ and ${\geq}$6.7‰ were significantly higher than those of gobiidae exposed to below ${\leq}$10.1‰ and ${\leq}$3.4‰ salinity, respectively. This study reveled that low salinity (${\leq}$3.4‰) reduced survival and growth rates of the 3 gobiidae suggesting potential influence on the natural mortality of gobiidae in the coastal areas.

A specimen of Redigobius bikolanus (29.0 mm SL) belonging to the family Gobiidae was collected by a hand net from the estuary of Changgo-cheon (river) in Andeok-myeon, Jeju Island, Korea. This specimen was characterized by having 26 lateral line scales, 7 predorsal scales, 7 transverse scales, anterior oculoscapular canal, preopercular canal, and four black spots between origin of anal fin and lower origin of caudal fin. The morphological characteristics of the specimen well matched those of Redigobius bikolanus previously reported. Thus, we newly add this species to the list of Korean fish fauna and propose its new Korean name, "Jeom-bak-i-mang-duk".

A single specimen of Glossogobius olivaceus was collected from Ulsan, Korea in May 2015, representing the first identification of the species in Korean waters. This species is characterized by several blackish dots on the nape, developed sensory pores and papillae on the head, 33 lateral line scales, and 27 vertebrae. The newly proposed Korean names of the genus and species are "Geom-eun-ban-jeom-mang-duk-sok" and "Geom-eun-ban-jeom-mang-duk", respectively.

Three specimens (23.5~26.9 mm in SL) of Eviota (Gobiidae) were collected from about 13 m depth off Munseom, Jeju Island, Korea. They are identified as Eviota melasma by their having a conspicuous black spot on the occipital region of the head and no spots on the dorsal midline of the body. This represents a first record of the species from Korea and a northernmost occurrence of the species.

This study is intended to be used as the basic material for the taxonomic research by observing the stages of skeletal development of Luciogobius grandis larvae compared to the skeletal development patterns of the same fish family of Gobiidae. 3 days after hatching (DAH), the preflexion larvae was 4.01±0.11 mm (n=5) in average total length (TL) and the frontal began to ossify in the skull. 17 DAH, the advanced postflexion larvae was 5.37±0.05 mm (n=5) in average TL the supraoccipital and epiotic were ossified in the cranial bone. 36 DAH, the juvenile was 12.2±0.20 mm (n=5) in average TL and the urohyal was ossified in the hyoid arch. In addition to one hypural bone being ossified, the first, second, third and fourth were combined and were made three bone fragments and then, the bone ossification of all skeletons was completed.

The four specimens of Clariger cosmurus, belonging to the family gobiidae were collected from the southern costal region of Korea, and described as the first record from Korea. The specimens are characterized by having two dorsal fins, a few barbels below the eye, and dark brownish line along lateral body from tip of snout to caudal peduncle. We propose a new Korean name of the genus Clariger, C. cosmurus as respectively Wae-mang-duk sok and Wae-mang-duk, for the species.

Six specimens of Bathygobius hongkongensis were collected for the first time from the eastern coast of Jeju Island, Korea, in September-November 2017. This species is characterized by a pectoral fin with free rays and the division of the first dorsalmost pectoral free ray into three branches; a lower jaw with a mental frenum; and an anterior nostril with a tiny flap. Bathygobius hongkongensis is similar to B. fuscus but differs in having more dorsalmost free pectoral fin rays. The new Korean name proposed for B. hongkongensis is "Nam-bang-mu-nui-mang-duk."
