To establish species-specific systematics to avoid confusing identification of four main commercial species of genus Anguilla in Korea, the relevant species were classified by morphological and molecular methodologies, using body measurement, random amplified polymorphic DNA, and mitochondrial 16S and 12S rDNA determination. Four species of the genus Anguilla from the Far-East (Anguilla japonica), Europe (A. anguilla), America (A. rostrata), and Indonesia (A. bicolor bicolor) were morphologically and genetically distinct from one another.
