Abstract

A new record of the eyeshade sculpin Nautichthys pribilovius is described on the basis of a single specimen collected from the East Sea, Korea. The species has 23 second dorsal fin rays, rounded spines on the occiput, a black band through the eye and across the cheek, branched caudal fin rays and a branchiostegal membrane attached to the isthmus. The new Korean name Gum-eun-tti-nun-hoet-dae-sok is proposed for the genus Nautichthys, and Gum-eun-tti-nun-hoet-dae is proposed for the species N. pribilovius.
