Two porcelain crab species, Aliaporcellana pygmaea (De Man, 1902) and Lissoporcellana nakasonei (Miyake, 1978), are reported here for the first time from Korean waters based on specimens collected from Jeju Island, Korea. The genus Aliaporcellana Nakasone and Miyake, 1969, and Lissoporcellana Haig, 1978 are also reported here for the first time in...

... The anomuran family Porcellanidae (Crustacea, Decapoda) known from Korea includes 12 species belonging to nine genera: Aliaporcellana pygmaea (De Man, 1902), Enosteoides ornatus (Stimpson, 1858), Lissoporcellana nakasonei (Miyake, 1978), Pachycheles hertwigi Balss, 1913, P. stevensii Stimpson, 1858, Petrolisthes coccineus (Owen, 1839), P. japonicus (De Haan, 1849), P. militaris (Heller, 1862), Pisidia serratifrons (Stimpson, 1858 ), Polyonyx sinensis Stimpson, 1858, Porcellana pulchra Stimpson, 1858, and Raphidopus ciliatus Stimpson, 1858 (see Kim 1973 Ko 2003 Ko , 2006 Lee et al. 2015). The zoeas of porcellanid crabs are very distinct in crustacean zooplankton and easily recognized by the extremely long rostral carapace spine and a pair of posterior carapace spines. ...
The first zoeas of Polyonyx sinensis and Porcellana pulchra are described and illustrated for the first time on the basis of laboratory-reared material. The morphological characteristics of zoeas of the two species including the chromatophore pattern, are compared with those of other six porcellanid species known from Korean waters. The zoea of Polyonyx sinensis has a rostral carapace spine with a red subterminal band, translucent posterior carapace spines, and a large brownish black chromatophore between the third and fourth pleomeres, whereas, Porcellana pulchra is characterized by an entirely red rostral carapace spine, pale red posterior carapace spines, and a pleon with a ventral row of red chromatophores. For the identification of zoeas of Korean porcellanid species, the images of living specimens and a key to species are provided.
