Abstract
The taxonomic review of the family Trachipteridae was carried out based on the Trachipterus ishikawae (7 specimens), Zu cristatus (4 specimens), Desmodema polystictum (2 specimens) collected from the East Sea, South Sea and adjacent waters of Jeju Island of Korea from June 2006 to August 2008. Among them, D. polystictum was revealed as an unrecorded species from Korea, being characterized by the following characters: the ventral edge smooth; body color silvery white with a lot of large dark rounded spot. We proposed the new Korean name of the genus Desmodema as "Jeom-tu-ra-chi-sog", D. polystictum as "Jeom-tu-ra-chi". Z. cristatus has a elongated first six dorsal fin and pelvic fin rays. T. ishikawae has a row of sharp tubercles along the ventral edge, and straightly elongated body form. In meristic characters, the number of dorsal fin rays were 178~195 in T. ishikawae, 137~148 in Z. cristatus and 125~130 in D. polystictum, the number of vertebrae were well distinguished among three species; T. ishikawae (80~83), D. polystictum (72~74) and Z. cristatus (65~68).
