Abstract
Four specimens (218.3~234.5 mm SL) of the family Stichaeidae were collected from the coastal water of Kangwon-do, in the middle East Sea of Korea. They are identified as Stichaeus nozawai Jordan and Snyder based on the following characters: posterior end of mouth not reaching posterior margin of eye, lateral line reaching posterior part of the caudal base; 10~13 dorsal spines behind end of lateral line, dorsal fin with oblique dark lines, I, 36~37 anal fin rays. We proposed a new Korean name, 'Keun-nun-jang-gaeng-i', for the species.
