Morphologically similar fish species were subjected to the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis using universal rice primer (URP). The fish species tested were sea basses (Lateolabrax japonicus and L. maculatus), eels (Anguilla japonica, A. bicolor bicolor, A. rostrata, and A. anguilla), and flounders (Limanda yokohamae and L. herzensteinin). Highly reproducible RAPD patterns were observed with several potential species-specific markers. The results indicate that RAPD technique using URP is useful for distinguishing fish psecies in a rapid manner.

The fluctuation in the abundance and species composition of fish was investigated using a fyke net with entrances on both sides in the coastal waters of Geumo-do, Yeosu, Chollanam-do, Korea, from May 2003 to April 2004. A total of 2,379 fishes (392.13 kg) were sampled and classified into 11 orders, 34 families, and 53 species. The dominant orders were Perciformes, Scorpaeniformes, and Pleuronectiformes, which accounted for 67.9% of the collected fishes. The dominant species was Acanthopagrus schlegelii (235 individuals, 19.00 kg), followed by Konosirus punctatus (182 individuals, 9.53 kg), and Apogon lineatus (161 individuals, 1.69 kg). The number of individuals and biomass were higher in spring and summer than in winter, and the monthly variation may be related to the water temperature. The diversity index was highest in September (H'=2.9) and lowest in December (H'=1.8). The evenness index was highest in August (J=0.9) and lowest in December (J=0.7). The dominance index was highest in December (D=0.7) and lowest in August (D=0.2). The economically important species in this area are Acanthopagrus schlegelii, Konosirus punctatus, Lateolabrax maculatus, Argyrosomus argentatus, Trichiurus lepturus, Lateolabrax japonicus, and Sebastes schlegelii.

In 2012, fishes caught by three-side fyke net in the coastal waters of Jedo were assessed for species composition and seasonal fluctuation in their abundance. The fish were caught at two research stations (St.) and were found to comprise 53 species, 39 families, and 9 orders. The dominant species were Takifugu niphobles, Lateolabrax maculatus, and Acanthopagrus schlegelii. To gain a measure of their biodiversity, all the species were assessed for their number, richness, diversity, evenness, and dominance. The highest and lowest number of total caught fish individuals was recorded in summer and winter, respectively. The diversity index was the highest in summer and lowest in winter. The evenness index was the highest in summer and lowest in spring. The richness index was highest in summer and lowest in winter. Furthermore, the dominance index was highest in spring and lowest in autumn.
