Eight specimens (330.2~431.3 mm TL) of the family Zoarcidae were collected from the costal waters of the Byeonsanbando, Yellow Sea, Korea. They were identified as a Zoarces elongatus Kner based on the following characters: a dorsal fin with 14~16 notch-shaped spinous rays, irregular 13~16 dark spots in a row along the median body and 126~132 vertebrae. We proposed a new Korean name, 'Mu-jeom-deung-ga-si-chi', for the species.

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.

Based on a single adult and two juvenile fishes collected from the coastal waters of Jeju Island, Scartella emarginata was redescribed as the first reliable record from Korea. The species is characterized by having a median fringe of cirri on head, short branched supraorbital cirrus, and by lacking canine teeth on both jaws.

A deep-dwelling goby, Obliquogobius yamadai, was described as the first record from Korea based on three specimens (30.3~47.0 mm SL) collected from the southern sea off Jeju Island. The species is characterized by having I, 9 second dorsal fin rays, scaled lateral side of nape, smaller head with large eye, and asymmetrical caudal fin dorsoventrally as well as about nine yellowish bars on body side. A new Korean name, "Gip-eun-ba-da-no-ran-ddi-mang-dug", is proposed for the species.

1983년 7월부터 1995년 10월까지 국내에서 채집된 망둑어아목 어류 4과 28속 51종을 대상으로 몸의 부위에 따른 비늘의 종류와 미병부 측면 비늘의 형태를 조사 비교하였다. Luciogobius grandis, L. guttatus 및 Leucopsarion petersi를 제외한 48종은 비늘을 가지고 있었으며, 비늘은 즐린과 원린의 2종류로 구분되었다. 특징적인 것은 동일 개체 내에서도 어체의 각 부위에 따라 종류, 형태, 크기, 초점의 위치, 구와 융기선수 및 소극수 등이 다르게 나타나지만 속과 종 수준에서 비교적 안정된 특징을 보여주었으며, 비늘의 유무와 그 종류에 따라 망둑어아목 어류는 5개의 group으로 분류되었다. 미병부 비늘의 형태는 5각형, 6각형, 원형 및 타원형으로 구분되었다. 또한 Odontobutis obscura interrupta, O. platycephala 및 Hypseleotris swinhoni는 2∼3열의 소극을 가지고 있고, Eutaeniichtys gilli와 Parioglossus dotui는 비늘의 초점이 중앙에 위치하고 있어 다른 망둑어아목 어류와 차이를 나타내었다.

The Remora brachyptera and R. osteochir, belonging to the family Echeneidae were collected for the first time off Jeju Island, Korea, in July and August 2013 and off Ganggu-myeon, Yeongdeok-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do in June 2014. Remora brachyptera is characterized by a sucker with 16 pairs of disc laminae and a dorsal fin that originates anterior of the origin of the anal fin. Remora osteochir is characterized by a sucker with 18 pairs of disc laminae and a sucking disc that extends beyond the posterior end of the pectoral fin. New Korean names proposed for the species are "Meo-ri-ppal-pan-i" for R. brachyptera and "Ppyeo-dae-ppal-pan-i" for R. osteochir.

민어(Miichthys miiuy)는 농어 목 (Perciformes), 민어과(Sciaenidae), 민어 屬(Miichthys)에 속하고, 우리나라 서남해, 황해, 발해, 일본의 중부이남 및 동중국해에 분포하는 어류이다(Chyung, 1998; 김 등, 1994; Lee and Park, 1992). 민어 과에 대한 연구로는 동갈민어(Nibea mitsukurii)의 자치어 형태발달(Kinoshita and Fujita. 1988), 한국산 민어 科 어류의 분류학적 재검토(Lee and Park, 1992), 수조기(Nibea albiflora)의 초기생활사(Takita, 1974), 동지나해의 조기(Pseudosciaena manchurica)와 부세(Pseudosciaena croea)의 자치어 형태발달(Yamada, 1973) 등의 보고가 있지만 민어의 난 발생과정 및 자치어의 발달에 관한 연구는 아직까지는 없다.

Two specimens of Taractes rubescens (family Bramidea) were collected from Busan and Pohang, Korea, between 2015 and 2016. Taractes rubescens was very similar to Taractes asper, but the two species are clearly distinguishable by the number of anal fin rays (21-23 in T. rubescens vs. 25-27 in T. asper) and the presence of a lateral caudal keel (present in T. rubescens vs. absent in T. asper). The mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequences of the specimens described in this paper perfectly matched those of T. rubescens, but differed from those of T. asper (genetic distance: 6.9%). We use the Korean common name proposed by Kim and Ryu (2017) for T. rubescens, "Geom-eun-sae-da-rae".

To clarify the cytogenetic features of the chicken grunt, Parapristipoma trilineatum, small yellow croaker, Larimichthys polyactis, and brown croaker, Miichthys miiuy, in Jeju, Korea, karyotype analysis was performed. The karyotype of chicken grunt and brown croaker consists of 24 pairs of telocentrics [2n=48, fundamental number (FN)=48], and small yellow croaker consists of 3 pairs of submetacentrics and 21 pairs of telocentrics (2n=48, FN=54). No evidence of polymorphism, including aneuploidy or sex-related heteromorphic chromosomes, was found in any specimens examined in this study.

The Korean trident goby, Tridentiger brevispinis, lives in adverse habitats that can easily become hypoxic due to low precipitation, regional dry periods, and high amounts of solar radiation. Histological and morphometric studies revealed the goby's specialized skin (35.4-150.0㎛ in thickness), consisting of an epidermis and dermis. The thicker epidermis comprises an outermost surface layer (having taste buds, stratified fattened cells, mucous cells, pigment cells, and stratified polygonal cells), middle layer (having stratified polygonal cells), and stratum germinativum (stratified columnar cells). In particular, the dermis has scales, well-developed vascularization, and a few blood capillaries just above the basement membrane, and a reduced diffusion distance was present in the lateral body. Consequently, adaptations such as thicker epidermis, well-developed vascularization, few blood capillaries, and a reduced diffusion distance may provide cutaneous respiration for survival in poorly oxygenated water during the periodic dry season.
