The mugilidae fishes are common euryhaline species that live in coastal marine waters to freshwater areas. The taxonomy and nomenclature of the mugilidae fishes still remain unresolved because of their morphological similarities. Among the mugilidae fishes, most commonly consumed in Korea, are grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) and red lip mullet (Chelon haematocheilus). It is generally called 'mullet' without distinguishing between two mullets. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the scientific names and common names of mullet species used in Korea from the domestic journals and Korean old documents. The scientific name of grey mullet is M. cephalus, but that of redlip mullet is C. haematocheilus. But the genus of redlip mullet is still mixed with Chelon, Mugil, and Liza. The standard name of two mullet is not distinguished in the Korean dictionary, but they were clearly distinguished in the Japanese, English, and Chinese dictionaries. In the ancient Korean references, the mullet was called 'Chieo' or 'Sueo'. In most of the old literature, the distinction between grey mullet and redlip mullet is not clear. However, in Jasaneobo, it was written separately from grey mullet and redlip mullet, and attaching "ga" was different from now. The Korean standard name of redlip mullet is 'gasungeo', however, the fishermen in Jeollado and Gyoungsangdo call it 'chamsungeo'. Considering the negative perception of 'ga' character, it is proposed to change 'cham(眞)' instead of 'ga(假)' to improve economic value of red lip mullet.

Age and growth of redlip mullet, Chelon haematocheilus were determined using samples collected in Han River estuary of Korea from June, 2013 to May, 2014. Age was determined from sagital otoliths and Annul marks were formed in January once a year. In addition, spawning season was estimated in May, thus first ring was formed 8 months. The mullets were principally composed of 0 to 3 years old and the oldest was 9 years old. Relationship between standard length (SL) and total weight (TW) were $TW=0.0124SL^{3.0133}$($r^2=0.9931$). The Von Bertalanffy growth parameters estimated were $L_{\infty}$ 61.3, $W_{\infty}$ 3,230.6, K 0.29/year, $t_0$ - 0.05 year.

본 연구는 현재까지 국내에서 가숭어, Chelon lauvergnii의 성숙 및 인공 종묘 생산에 관한 구체적인 연구 보고는 매우 미흡한 실정임을 고려, 가숭어의 효과적인 인공 종묘 생산을 위한 기초 자료로서 산란기 특성 조사 및 부화 자어에 대한 rotifer, Artefnia, 배합사료 공급에 따른 성장과 생존을 조사하였다. 또한 rotifer와 brine shrimp, Artemia nauplius를 오징어 간유, 식물성 플랑크톤 건조 분말인 Maxima$^{TR}$ , Chlorella sp.로 각각 영양 강화한 후 치어에 공급시 자어의 성장과 생존에 대한 그 효과를 비교 분석하였다. 아울러 밀도별 사육 실험을 통한 적정 밀도를 규명하여 가숭어 종묘 생산시 효율적이고 경제적인 기술을 개발하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다.

This study was carried out to reveal the taxonomic status of the two mullets, Chelon affinis and Chelon haematocheilus from Korea by comparison of their morphological characteristics. Chelan affinis, occurred in the southern coastal area, is a distinct species characterized by having a keel on the middorsal line in front of the spinous dorsal fin. However, Chelon haematocheilus, found in the all coastal areas of Korea excluding Cheju island is easily distinguished from the former in having the deep flat head. By comparison of five groups of Chelan haematocheilus, Kunsan group is slightly differed from others in the height of anal fin and caudal peduncle length. Although Chelon affinis is similar with Chelan haematocheilus in the view of meristic characters, they are distinguished from each other in the number of pyloric caeca and lateral line scales.

The taxonomic revision of the family Mugilidae from Korea was made based on the fish specimens collected from the coasts of the Korea from July 1990 to July 1994. The family Mugilidae was classified into three species belonging to two genera: Mugil cephalus, Liza haematocheilus and Liza carinatus. Previousely Mugil japonicus reported as a species from Korea was confirmed into junior synonym of Mugil cephalus. based on the external and internal morphological characters. A new key to the genera and species of family Mugilidae was proposed and described their distribution in Korea.

At the Poryoung coast, the spawning season of the mullet, Chelon lauvergnii lasts from May to June. A combination of rotifer, Rotifer nauplii and synthetic feed supported significantly (P < 0.05) better survival and growth of 1-day old mullet larvae during 70-day rearing experiment than the other feeds consisting of rotifer or rotifer + Artemia nauplii. Significantly higher growth and survival were also observed, when the larvae were fed on rotifer, that were harvested from culture enriched with masimaTR, or Artemia nauplii from culture enriched with cuttlefish liver oil, At the feeding density of 97-98 individuals /200 l, the mullet larvae displayed maximum growth and survival in aquarium each with 100 larvae /200 l.

The dimension of the fishlock at the Youngam Lake is 6.6m wide and 30m long, and it has been used for both fish migration and ship passage. The capacity of attraction freshwater is $0.172\;\textrm{m}^3/s$, and the water depth of the fishlock varies between 1.9m - 5.7m due to the tide. Fishes were sampled weekly by using 3m wide maze net from April to June, 1999, and by using purse seine covering the entire space of fishlock from July to November, 1999. 116,014 samples were comprised of 25 species, and 99.5% of the samples were 10 kinds of diadromous fishes. The order of the diadromous fishes in abundance was Hemirhamphus kurumeus, Hypomesus olidus, Coilia ectens, and Mugil cephalu, where these four species consist 99% of the individuals, and the other six species contribute only a few of individuals. Each species had unique peak migration period. The peak migration of Hypomesus olidus, Mugil cephalus, Coilia ectens, and Hemirhamphus kurumeus happened on July 20, July 15, May 10, and May 1, respectively.tively.
