To study the abundances of ichthyoplankton in the Nakdong River estuary, ichthyoplankton were sampled with standard net at approximately one month intervals from February, 1987 to January, 1988. Temperature and salinity in the study area showed large seasonal fluctuations due to the inflow of Nakdong River. Among 8 taxa of pelagic eggs occured in the study area, Sillago spp. occupied 37.3% of the total eggs; Coilia spp., 35.8%; Repomucenus spp., 13.7%; Engraulis japonica, 9.4%. These 4 taxa occupied 96.4% of the total eggs. Among 26 taxa of fish larvae, Engraulis japonica was the most abundant species and occupied 36.8% of the total larvae; Gobiidae, 15.3%; Repomucenus spp., 15.0%; Coilia spp., 14.0%; Hexagrammos otakii, 6.8%; Omobranchus elegans, 4.4%. These 6 taxa occupied 92.3% of the total larvae, The densities of pelagic eggs were more than 100 eggs/ 1,000m super(3) from May to October. The densities of larvae were 3.8~221.3 larvae/1,000m super(3). They were relatively high in May, July, and August.
