Abstract

One specimen (103.7 mm SL) of Lactoria fornasini, belonging to the family Ostraciidae, collected from the coastal waters of Jeju Island, marks the first record of the species from Korea. It is characterized by having a strongly curved spine on the dorsal ridge, a pair of short spines in front of the eyes, a pair of spines projecting posteriorly from the rear end of the ventrolateral ridge, and wavy blue lines on the body. We add this species to the Korean fish fauna and propose its new Korean name, "Jul-mu-nui-ppul-bok."
