The taxonomic status of Moroco Jagowskii and M oxycephalus a pair of sibling species inhabiting in Korean fresh waters, has been unclear up to date. Recently a sympatric area of these species was found (Kang, 1987). The purpose of this study was to clarify their specific status by analysing specimens collected from the sympatric area of these species. Isozyme analysis and morphometric comparison were performed. Among 26 loci screened 6 loci (Aco, Est-2, E-X, Gk-3, Ipo, Me) showed fixed allelic difference between them and these loci could be used as genetic markers to distinguish them. Isozyme analysis indicates that no hybridization occurs and therefore it is assumed that isolating mechanism is completed and they are distinct species. The mean number of scales above lateral line (SAL) of M Jagowskii and M oxycephalus at sympatric area was 24.93 $\pm$1.95 and 17.33$\pm$0.72 respectively, and it seems as the result of character displacement. A finer microhabitat segregation between them is noticed. M oxycephalus is found along the effluent streams whereas M lagowskii is distributed mostly in the main stream at sympatric area.
