Abstract
The true cuttlefishes genus Sepia (Doratosepion) Linne, 1758, characterized by shell thick, entirely calcareous, shell almost as long as mantle, was collected from the coastal of Dong-Am, Busan, Korea in April, 2004. The specimen agreed closely with description of Sepia (Doratosepion) kobiensis Hoyle, 1885 and S. tokioensis Ortmann, 1888. We herein described the species, being as the first record of S. kobiensis and tokioensis from the region. New Korean names are also provided.
