Abstract

A single specimen of Pherallodus indicus was collected for the first time from a tidal pool on the eastern coast of Jeju Island, Korea, in June 2017. This species is characterized by the division of the sucking disc formed from the pelvic fin into two portions, a lower jaw without mandibular canal pores, a head without preopercular canal pores, and eight dorsal and seven anal fin rays. The newly proposed Korean name for Pherallodus is “Eol-ruk-hak-chi-sok”, and the species name is “Eol-ruk-hak-chi”.
