Abstract
Dragonet fish (Callionymidae), living in benthic upper 900 m of all subtropical, tropical and temperate oceans, comprises 200 species in 20 genera worldwide, of which 18 species in 6 genera occur in Korea. Although dragonet fish plays an important role in linking between top predators and lower trophic levels, there are only few studies about their early life history. Herein, we present molecular and morphological data on larvae and juveniles of Bathycallionymus kaianus (Günther, 1880) collected from the Korean waters. During 2016 to 2018, one preflexion larvae [2.69 in total length (TL)], three flexion larvae (3.65 and 4.77 mm TL), six postflexion larvae (6.07 and 7.94 mm TL), and three juveniles (10.81 and 12.26 mm TL) were collected in the East Sea, Korea Strait, and Jeju Island using Bongo net. Of them, 13 individuals were identified through molecular markers (COI or 16S rRNA) and morphologically described. The larvae of B. kaianus are well distinguished from other species of Callionymidae in melanophore distribution, body shape and development of preopercular spine. It was very similar to larvae of two Repomucenus species, R. valenciennei and R. virgis, but was clearly distinguished in melanophore distribution, preopercular spine development, and head shape.
