Abstract
Omobranchus loxozonus is first recorded from Korea based on 31 specimens (32.3~71.5 mm SL) collected from the southern coastal waters of Jeju Island. The species is characterized by having XII~XIV, 19~22 dorsal fin rays, II, 22~24 anal fin rays, and a conspicuous color pattern on the body. A new Korean name "Gu-reum-be-do-ra-chi" is proposed for the species.
