Abstract
Chilsan-do Island, South Korea, has previously been identified as one of the biggest spawning sites of the small yellow croaker Larimichthys polyactis in the Yellow Sea. To determine whether Chilsan-do still serves as a spawning site for L. polyactis, three to five stations around Chilsan-do Island were surveyed for eggs from April to June (the main spawning season of L. polyactis) in 2019, using an RN80 net. For the first time, three L. polyactis eggs were identified at two stations, located just in front of Chilsan-do Island and between Chilsan-do and the coastline, only in May. The diameter of L. polyactis eggs (1.26-1.34 mm) was very similar to those of Collichthys niveatus (1.30-1.37 mm) and Setipinna tenuifilis (1.34-1.35 mm). During the survey period, the sea surface salinity remained constant (32.0-32.1 psu), but the sea surface temperature (SST) rapidly rose from 13.6-13.7℃ in April to 22.1℃ in May. Our findings suggest that L. polyactis still spawns near Chilsan-do Island today, but on a very small scale, and that changes in SST promote spawning of L. polyactis.
