The isolated soluble eye proteins from six species (Sepia esculenta, Sepiella japonica, Loligo chinensis, Todarodes pacificus, Loligo beka and Ocotopus minor) of class Cephaloopoda were compared by crossed immunoelectrophoresis methods using antibodies directed against total soluble eye proteins antigens. It showed a distinct antigen-antibody reaction between the species of order Sepioidea and various antiserum of class Cephalopoda. Our results suggested that the common precipitation lines of Sepia and Loligo species which were different from that of Octopus minor. By which obtained from elution of gel filtration chromatography and 12.5% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the molecular weight of Todarodes pacificus eye protein (crystallin) was determined in abut 20-35 KDa.

The Japanese Flying Squid (Todarodes pacificus) is a commercially important species in South Korea and the most popular species among consumers. However commercial catches of Japanese Flying Squid have been declining since 2000. In this study, we conducted a stock assessment to identify stock status. This study differed from previous studies in two aspects: a greater amount of available fishing effort data was used, and data from China, Japan, and Korea were included. A CMSY (catch-maximum sustainable yield) model was used to estimate MSY, biomass and exploitation with Bayesian state-space implementation of the Schaefer (BSS) model for the method of stock assessment, and evaluated the species by dividing into two groups, 'Korea' and ' Korea·China·Japan'. In all cases, Japanese flying squid biomass showed a general decreasing trend. Additionally, the biomass estimated for 2020 was lower than the biomass necessary to achieve the maximum sustainable yield. To manage Japanese Flying Squid effectively, it is necessary to strengthen the resource management strategies of individual countries and prepare a cooperative plan among countries.

This review paper discussed the decadal fluctuations in the catch of the common squid, Todarodes pacificus (T. pacificus) by focusing on migration and distribution patterns. Since 1980s, changes in T. pacificus catches were due to climate regime shift in Korean waters. Fluctuation patterns of catches were different between the East Sea and the Yellow Sea. Generally PDO (Pacific Decadal Oscillation) phase shows a negative correlation with strength of warm current to the East Sea. In 1980s when PDO was positive phase (+), T. pacificus catch was higher in the Yellow, but it was lower in the East Sea. In 1990s when PDO was negative phase (-), T. pacificus catch showed opposite trend compared with 1980s. Such spatial and decadal fluctuations of T. pacificus catch were due to its northward migration along with the warm current or southward movement against the current. In the East Sea, strong (weak) warm current period, the current path has been shifted toward the East Sea coast of Korea (central East Sea or the coast of Japan). It has a correlation with PDO. In the positive PDO phase (1980s), the fishing ground was located on the eastern side of Ulleungdo, whereas during negative PDO phase (1990s), they were situated near the southeastern coast of the Korean peninsula. In the 1980s, volume transport passing into the Yellow Sea increased, whereas volume transport in the East Sea decreased. This is one of major reason increasing T. pacificus larvae in the Yellow Sea.

Field observation for oceanic conditions and paralarvae of the common squid, Todarodes pacificus in Korean waters were sampled with the Bongo net (diameter: 60 cm, mesh size: $333{\mu}m$) by using oblique tow method with the oceanographic research vessel (Tamgu 12 and Tamgu 20) around Korean waters (middle of the Yellow Sea, northern part of the East China Sea, East Sea) in 2013 and 2014 was carried out. The observation in the Yellow Sea and the northern part of the East China Sea was done in August, 2013 and in the East Sea it was repeated at seven times from June, 2013 to September, 2014. The paralarvae in August of 2013 was not found in the Yellow Sea and one paralarvae was found in the northern part of the East China Sea. In the East Sea, 39 paralarvae during whole observation period were found, mantle length of paralarvae was from 1.7 to 13.5 mm. Surface water temperature in the Yellow Sea was $30^{\circ}C$, and cold water mass lower than $10^{\circ}C$ was occupied in the deep layer than 30 m. In the northern part of the East China Sea, surface water temperature was $31^{\circ}C$, and higher water temperature above $20^{\circ}C$ was found in deeper than 50 m. In the East Sea, optimum temperature for survival, $15-24^{\circ}C$, was existed shallower than 75 m.

Paralarvae of the common squid, Todarodes pacificus, were sampled with the bongo net (diameter: 60 cm, mesh: $333{\mu}m$) with a research vessel (Tamgu 20) at 18 stations along the coastal waters of the Yellow Sea in spring and autumn from 2013 to 2015. Over this period, 4 Paralarvae were collected. Paralarval density was $0.1inds./1,000m^3$ and $0.2inds./1,000m^3$ in autumn 2014 and $0.1inds./1,000m^3$ and $0.2inds./1,000m^3$ in autumn 2015. The range of mantle length for paralarvae was from 1.5 to 8.3 mm. Survival temperature ($15-24^{\circ}C$) for embryo stage and paralarvae was found in locations shallower than 56 m of depth at stations which were sampled for paralarvae.

살오징어(Japanese flying squid, Todarodes pacificus)는 우리나라 전역과 동중국해에서 채낚기, 대형선망, 안강망 어업을 통하여 년중 어획되고 있으며, 1995년 이후 년간 20만 톤 이상을 꾸준히 어획하는 중요 상업 어종 가운데 하나이다(국립수산과학원, 1999).오징어는 일본의 경우 총허용어획량(TAC) 대상 어종으로 자원의 일정한 관리를 위해 음향 조사를 이용한 자원량 파악을 실시하고 있지만 우리나라의 경우 아직 TAC어종에 포함되지 못하고 있다. (중략)

To determine the horizontal and temporal distribution of common squid larvae, Todarodes pacificus (hereafter T. pacificus), we conducted surveys using an IKMT net (mesh size: $500{\mu}m$) with a Fisheries Research Vessel (FRV, TAMGU 21) in the southwestern part of the East Sea in summer (August and September) and autumn (November) 2015. A total of 228 larvae, ranging in mantle length (ML) from 1.4 mm to 21.9 mm, were collected at 35 stations over the research period. The monthly average mantle length of T. pacificus larvae did not differ significantly in August, September and November. (p > 0.05). Catch densities at positive stations ranged between 0.1 and $7.9inds./1,000m^3$ over the research period. Incidence rates of T. pacificus larvae were similar over three months, in the study area (62.9 % - 68.6 %). The 4 - 5 mm mantle length range had the highest frequency in size-frequency distributions for T. pacificus larvae. The larval survival temperature ($15-24^{\circ}C$) at positive stations for catch densities was located below a 20 m depth in August whereas it was located at the surface of the water in September and November. The survival temperature for larvae existed from the bottom to the surface of the water where larvae were sampled larvae in shallow sea areas. However, the larval survival temperature occurred in a shallower location than the upper layer of the thermocline in deep sea areas at a depth below 100 m.

We investigated the biological characteristics of the squid, Todarodes pacificus Steenstrup through the samples caught monthly in the Yellow Sea($32^{\circ}$ 30'N, $122^{\circ}E-37^{\circ}$ 30'N, $127^{\circ}E$) from 1985 to 1987. Monthly mantle length frequency were separated into Autumn spawning group and winter spawning group with Tanaka's method(1956) to determine the main group of the squids caught in the Yellow Sea. The ratio of winter spawning group was higher than that of autumn spawning group. Monthly gonadosomatic index of females increased on July in 1985, on October in 1986, and October in 1987 and decreased later in each year. That of males increased on June in 1985, on July in 1986, and June in 1987. The length of 50% group maturity of female was 20.7 cm mantle length(ML) in 1985, 17.9 cm ML in 1986, and 17.2 cm ML in 1987. The ratio of female was higher than that of male in the group over 24 cm ML, and the ratio of male was higher than that of female in the group under 24 cm ML. We concluded that the length of 50% group maturity of squids was affected by the density of the population status.
