Korean cephalopods only recorded with Korean name in the literature were reviewed to solve confusions in use of their Korean name for taxonomic studies of cephalopods in Korea, and to prepare a basic check list for standardizing total cephaolopods fauna of Korea in the future. A total 38 cephalopods species with Korean names were listed in this study; 14 species in order Sepioidea, 17 species in Teuthoidea, 7 species in Octopoda. The etymology and some problems of Korean names of cephalopods occurring in Korea, and the useable rules for naming cephalopods with Korean words are recommended and discussed.

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.

Two long-term feeding trials were conducted to compare the effects on survival and growth of juvenile sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus of experimental diets containing corn distillers dried grains with solubles, Squid Sepioteuthis sepioidea liver meal, and brown fish meal with a commercial die. In both first and second trials, two experimental diets and one commercial diet were assessed. After a 45-week feeding period in trial 1, survival did not differ significantly among groups. The final mean weight of sea cucumbers fed either experimental diet was significantly higher than that of sea cucumbers fed the commercial diet. After a 15-week feeding period in trial 2, survival and final mean weight of sea cucumbers fed either experimental practical diets was significantly higher than that of sea cucumbers fed the commercial diet. It was concluded that the experimental diets formulations can be used as a practical diet, and inclusion of corn distillers dried grains with solubles, squid liver meal, and brown fish meal can improve the growth of juvenile sea cucumbers.
