Identified and classified materials are composed of 15 species and 2 subspecies, all of which are described, under 10 genera and 5 damilies, of which 2 species and 1 subspecies are new to Korea as follows: Chelonibia patula, Chirona (Striatobalanus) amaryllis, Solidobalanus (Hesperibalanus) hesperius hesperius. 3. As dominant species, Chthamalus challengeri and Tetraclita squamosa japonica are widely distributed in Korea through East Sea, South Sea and Yellow Sea. 4.
