Abstract
A single female juvenile specimen of Stethojulis bandanensis (Bleeker, 1851) was collected from Korea. The specimen is characterized by the 14 pectoral fin rays, the orange-red spot on upper pectoral fin base, and two small light-blue-edged black dots on the caudal peduncle. This species is the third species of the genus Stethojulis Günther, 1861 in Korea, and the newly proposed Korean name for the species is “Ju-hwang-jeom-mu-ji-gae-nol-lae-gi”.
