Abstract

A bothid specimen (65.8 mm SL) collected from southern coastal waters of Tongyeong, Gyeongsangnam-do, is identified as Engyprosopon grandisquama. The specimen represents a new Korean record for the species. It is characterized by the presence of 6 gill rakers on the lower limb of the first arch, caudal fin with a pair of large jet-black blotches between the 3rd and 4th rays counted from the upper and lower margins, and body depth more than 50% of body length. A new Korean name "keun-bi-neul-neop-chi-sok" and "keun-bi-neul-neop-chi" is proposed for the genus and species, respectively.

경상남도 통영의 남쪽 근해에서 채집된 어류 1개체는 한국미기록종인 둥글넙치과의 Engyprosopon grandisquama로 동정되었다. 본 종의 특징은 6개의 새파가 하완에만 존재하는 점, 꼬리지느러미 상하의 3번째와 4번째 기조에 검은 점무늬가 대칭으로 위치하며 체고가 다소 높아서 체장의 1/2 이상인 점이다. 본종의 속명과 국명은 "큰비늘넙치속", "큰비늘넙치"로 제안한다.
