Based on the 14 specimens collected from the Korean waters, we described the external morphology of Ocynectes maschalis in detail to provide morphological characteristics for species identification. The species from Korea is characterized by having a low first dorsal fin with a dark spot posteriorly, no dark blotches ventrally, three saddle-like blotches on dorsal midline posterior to the second dorsal fin, and two occipital cirri on head.
