First record of yellowfin snapper, Lutjanus xanthopinnis (Actinopterygii, Perciformes, Lutjanidae), from Jeju-do Island, Korea
A single specimen of Lutjanus xanthopinnis Iwatsuki, Tanaka et Allen, 2015 (78.9 mm standard length), was collected from Hahyo Port in Jeju-do Island, Korea. The specimen is characterized by X, 13 dorsal fin rays, III, 8 anal fin rays, 16 pectoral fin rays, 49 lateral line scales, 5 scale rows on cheek, scales on preopercular flange, posterior nostril shape oviform, predorsal scales reaching anteriorly approximately the midpoint of the interorbital area. A new Korean name, “No-rang-tung-dom” is proposed based on the presence of several thin yellow horizontal stripes below the lateral line on the body.
