Abstract

A taxonomic study on the marine sponges was conducted with material collected by SCUBA diving from Ulleungdo Island, Korea during July 2001 to August 2003. They were identified 19 species belonging to 14 genera in 12 families of six orders in two classes identified. Among them, Haliclona (Reniera) permollisimilis Hoshino, 1981 is newly recorded to the Korean fauna and Geodia ulleungensis n. sp. is new to science.

울릉도 해산 해면류를 동정$\cdot$분류하기 위하여 2001년 7월부터 2003년 8월까지 울릉도 인근 지역 섬으로부터 SCUBA를 이용하여 채집한 표본을 동정하였다. 그 결과 2강 6목 12과 14속 19종으로 밝혀졌고, 이 가운데 유사보라해면 [Haliciona (Renera) permollisimilis (Hoshino, 1981)]이 한국미기록종으로 밝혀졌으며 울릉죠디아해면 (Geodia ulleungensis n. sp.)이 신종으로 밝혀졌다.
