First Record of Japanese gonate squid, Gonatopsis japonicus Okiyama, 1969 (Mollusca: Cephalopoda: Ganatidae) from Korea waters

초록

To date, the family Gonatidae consists of four genera and a total of 20 species. Two species within Gonatidae, Berryteuthis magister and G. makko, have been reported in Korean waters so far. In this study, a specimen of gonate squid was collected during DeepSea surveys and was identified as Gonatopsis japonicus Okiyama, 1969, which is the first record in South Korea. We provide morphological descriptions and photographs of G. japonicus, with the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene sequence.
