Abstract

A field study of the brood parasitism by Korean shiner, Psudopungtungia nigra, on nests of the Korean aucha perch, Coreoperca herzi, was carried out from May 2003 to July 2003 at the Juja stream, Jinan-gun, Jeonlabuk-do, Korea. Observations in the wild showed that the Korean shiner concentrated on nests of Korean aucha perch in which the nest owners had just spawned. The Korean shiner always spawned in nests of Korean aucha perch. When the parasite shiner spawned in the perch nest, the parasite eggs hatched earlier than the host eggs. Parasite prelarvae shiner left the nest of the host immediately after hatching. Host and parasite eggs disappeared with no guarding by the host male. We suggest that the parasite eggs are protected from egg predators by the host male.
