Abstract
The Indo-West Pacific pipefish, Hippichthys penicillus was newly recorded from Korean waters based on a single specimen (124.5 mm SL) collected from a lower reach of creek of the Namhaedo Island flowing into Dongdae Bay. It is separable from congeners in having a longer snout and unique configuration of principle body ridges including discontinuous superior trunk and tail ridges and straight lateral trunk ridge ending near anus. A new Korean name, "Huin-jeom-sil-go-gi", is proposed for the species.
