초록

An asteroid specimen was collected from Jumunjin, Gangwon-do in the East Sea, Korea at a depth of 50 m using fishing nets on 26 May 2013. It was identified as Pteraster militaris (O.F. $M{\ddot{u}ller$, 1776) belonging to the family Pterasteridae of the order Velatida based on morphological characteristics. This species is usually distributed in the cold boreal zone around northern Pacific and Atlantic, and is distinctly distinguished from P. tesselatus which was reported in Korean fauna: body form, length ratio of arm to disc and surface of dorsal membrane.
