Nalbant and Dr. P. Banarescu of National History Museum, Rumania, Mr. Y. Fusioka, associate professor of Yamaguchi University, Mr. K. Hosoya of Kyoto University, and Mr. Y. Sawada of Hokkaido University for their help in sending the specimens of C. taenia taenia and C. taenia striata by mail. I am also indebted to the Asan Foundation for the financial support of this research.

1974년부터 1979년까지 남한의 주요 하천에서 채집한 기름종개속 어류의 표본을 동정한 결과 Cobbits taenia striata Ikeda, 1936, C. taenia lutheri Rendahl, 1935의 2아종과 C. granoei Rendahl, 1935의 1종이 한국미기록이었으므로 그 형태적 특징을 기재하고 지리적 분포와 검색표에 대하여 보고한다. 이로써 우리나라의 기름종개속 어류는 모두 4종 3아종이 된다.
