Abstract
Fish assemblages in the coastal waters off Gampo in the East Sea of Korea were analyzed using the samples of fishes collected with bottom trammel gill nets June, September, and December 2005 and, March 2006. During the study period, a total of 32 fish species, 695 individuals, and 180,012.0 g representing 21 families were collected. The fish assemblages predominantly consisted of Ditrema temminckii, which accounted for 52.4% of the number of individuals and 40.4% in the biomass. The next major specimens were Hexagrammos otakii, Sebastes schlegelii, Stephanolepis cirrhifer, Sebastes taczanowskii, Halichoeres poecilopterus. These six fishes accounted 77.6% of total number of individuals and 77.5% of total biomass. The number of fish species, the number of individuals and biomass were fluctuated with month. The number of species was highest in June 2005 and lowest in March 2006. The number of individuals and biomass was highest in September 2005 and lowest in June 2005.
