A single specimen of Lepidocybium flavobrunneum (910.0 mm standard length) in the
family Gempylidae, was collected off northwestern Jeju Island, Korea on April 28, 2016. The species is characterized by a blackish body, very low first dorsal fin spines, second dorsal fin rays followed by six finlets, anal fins followed by five finlets, caudal peduncle with a large keel flanked by two small supplementary keels, and a lateral line with an irregular wave pattern. Here, we propose the new Korean names “Heuk-gal-chi-ggo-chi-sok” for the genus Lepidocybium and “Heuk-gal-chi-ggo-chi” for the species L. flavobrunneum.
