A specific disease syndrome, which led to massive mortality on the Korean mandarin fish fingerling (Sinperca scherzeri) at Chongpyong Inland Fisheries Institute was atudied. The causetive agent isolated from the diseased fish was identified as Aeromonas hydrophila on the basis of biochemical and physiological characteristics. Infection experiments in the Korean mandarin fish fingerling, weighting 3-4 g with A. hydrophila were conducted by immersion, oral administration, intramuscular injection, and injection of the soluble extracellular products secreted from it. Motality rate was higher virulence in intramuscular injection group than other experimental groups. In injection group of the soluble extracellular products, all fish treated with high concentration ($8{ imes}10^9$ cfu/ml) were repidly killed into 3-6 hrs. There results show that the Korea mandarin fish fingerling has high susceptibility to A. hydrophila.
