Report for eight species of Salpinae (Thaliacea: Salpida: Salpidae) from Korean waters

In this study, aggregate and solitary zooids of salps were collected from Southern and East Sea of Korea. By morphological characteristic examinations, eight species in the subfamily Salpinae were identified as new records in Korean waters: Pegea bicaudata (Quoy and Gaimard 1826); Pegea confoederata...
