Feeding habits of Acentrogobius pflaumii collected from the eelgrass bed in Kwangyang Bay from January 1994 to December 1994 were studied. Acentrogobius pflaumii was a carnivore which consumed mainly gammarid amphipods, polychaetes and gastropods. Its diets included minor quantities of cope pods, tanaids and crabs. It showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. Individuals of 1~2cm SL preyed heavily on gammarid amphipods. However, polychaetes and gastropods were selected with increasing fish size. Although gammarid amphipods, polychaetes, and gastropods were major prey organisms for all seasons, the relative proportion of these food items changed with season. Consumption of gammarid amphipods and polychaetes was relatively high in summer, and consumption of gastropods was relatively high in winter.

A total of 64 fish species was collected by an otter trawl in the coastal water off Namhae Island from May 1989 to April 1990. The dominant species were Acentrogobius pflaumii, Chaeturichthys hexanema, Chaeturichthys sciistius, Thryssa kammalensis, and Repomucenus valenciennei which accounted for approximately 66.5% of the total numbers and 34.5% of biomass of fish collected. Fish collected in the study area were primarily small fish species or early juverniles of large fish species. Only about 15%, exceeded 10cm in standard length. Seasonal variations in both species composition and abundance of fishes were major characteristics in the study area. The peak abundance occurred in April and September, while the number of species was relatively high from October to January. However, both the number of species and abundance of fishes showed the lowest values in winter.

The effect of estuarine dams on fish assembladge in Danghang Bay of Goseong, Korea was determined using monthly samples collected by a beam trawl and a cast net at the natural estuaries and damed estuary from September 2011 to August 2012. In the natural estuaries without dam, salinity was relatively high showing a large diurnal change. Estuarine fishes such as striped sandgoby, Acentrogobius pflaumii and yellowfin goby, Acanthogobius flavimanus, were dominantly caught in the sea side water. In the dammed estuary, freshwater species such as pale chub, Zacco platypus and triden goby, Tridentiger brevispinis were dominanlty caught. The dam in the Danghang estuary have significant effects on the fish assemblage through aquatic environmental change such as salinity.

The species composition and seasonal variation of fish assemblage in the coastal water off Gadeok-do, Korea were studied using the monthly trawled samlpes through a year of 1998. During the study period, 110 species of fishes from 57 families were collected. Repomucenus valenciennei, Thryssa kammalensis, Leiognathus nuchalis and Zoarces gilli dominated the fish assemblage throughout the year, and were responsible for $ 57.6{\%}$ and $37.2{\%}$ in the number of individuals and biomass, respectively. Fish species of secondary importance in abundance were Sillago japonica, Apogon lineatus, Pholis fangi, Engraulis japonicus, Thryssa adelae, Pho;is nebulosa, Conger myriaster, Liparis tanakai, Acentrogobius pflaumii, Limanda yokohamae, Chaeturichthys hexanema, Erisphex pottii and Cunoglossus abbreviatus. Higher numbers of species were collected in spring and autumn than in summer and winter. Abundance was high in spring and autumn, and low in summer and winter, Species diversity indices showed that the fish assemblage was more diverse in autumn than any other seasons.

To study the fish larval community in the coastal waters of the mid-east Yellow sea, samples were collected with Bongo net at 13 stations between Chonsu Bay and Keum Estuary from July, 1985 to June, 1986. total of 45 taxa of fish larvae were occurred. the predominant species was Enedrias fangi accounting for 45.2% of the total abundances, and the next were Engraulis japonicus (27.5%), sardinella zunasi (10.6%), Callionymidae spp. (4.6%), Sillago japonica (3.0%), Favonigobius gymnauchen (1.9%), and Acentrogobius pflaumii (1.8%). These 7 taxa constituted 94.6% of the total abundances. The monthly abundances showed two peaks in July and January. Species diversities were very low from January to April when E. fangi predominated.

This is a study of the fish assemblages in eelgrass beds of Geoje Bay on Geoje Island, Korea. Samples were collected by surf net monthly from June 2006 to May 2007. A total 26 species, 1,825 individuals, and 4,483.1 g of fishes were collected. The dominant species were Acentrogobius pflaumii, Aulichthys japonicus, Gymnogobius heptacanthus, Rudarius ercodes, Chaenogobius annularis, Gymnogobius urotaenia, Syngnathus schlegeli, Pterogobius elapoides, Zoarchias glaber, Takifugu niphobles, Zoarchia suchidai. These species accounted for 90.6% of the total number of individuals and 76.2% of the biomass of the fishes collected. The fish assemblages in the eelgrass beds showed clear seasonal changes; the number of fish species and individuals increased in March and were highest in September, whereas the biomass attained its highest level in May and subsequently decreased. Meanwhile the species diversity indices showed their highest value in December.

Collections were made monthly using beam trawl from March 2005 to February 2006 in Gujora, and from June 2006 to May 2007 in Geoje Bay to investigate the species composition of Juvenile and Immature Fishes of both coastal areas. Fishes collected in the sandy shore of Gujora were 6 orders, 14 families, 20 species, 224 individuals, and 534.9 g in total. Favonigobius gymnauchen, Trachioncephalus myops, Pseudoblennius percoides, Sagamia geneionema, Repomucenus beniteguri, and Pseudorhombus cinnamoneus were mainly collected. These 6 species accounted for 83.9% of total individuals and 47.1 % of total biomass. On the other hand, fishes collected in Geoje Bay were 4 orders, 8 families, 14 species, 1,406 individuals and 1,899.7 g in total. Acentrogobius pflaumii, Platyce phalusindicus, Chasmichthy dolichognathus, Acanthogobius flavimanus, Gymnogobius urotaenia, and Synechogobius hasta were mainly collected. These 6 species accounted for 97.7% of total individuals and 96% of total biomass. The greatest numbers and biomass of fishes were collected in summer and the lowest in winter. In Geoje Bay, the number of species and individuals reached the peak in September and August, respectively. However, both species and individual numbers were highly fluctuated in Gujora.
