Two specimens (407~438 mm in standard length) of a pleuronectid Atheresthes
evermanni were collected by a gill-net from the coastal waters off Goseong-gun, middle East Sea of
Korea. These specimens are characterized by a large mouth, narrow interorbital space, invisible eye
at blind side, long and slender gill rakers, emarginated caudal fin, and almost straight lateral line. This
is the first record of A. evermanni in Korean waters; we therefore add it to the Korean fish fauna and
propose new Korean name, “Hwa-sal-chi-ga-ja-mi-sog” for the genus and “Hwa-sal-chi-ga-ja-mi” for
the species, respectively.
