초록

Three ciliate species, Australocirrus australis (Foissner, 1995) Kumar and Foissner, 2015, Rimaleptus longitrichus ($Vd^{\prime}a{\check{c}}n{\acute{y}}$ and Foissner, 2008) $Vd^{\prime}a{\check{c}}n{\acute{y}}$ and Foissner, 2012, and Frontonia subtropica Pan et al., 2013, that were previously unreported in Korea were collected from terrestrial and marine habitats in Korea. Using live observation and protargol impregnation, the three species were identified using a combination of the following characteristics: Australocirrus australis, the distance between the anterior pretransverse cirrus and the anteriormost transverse cirrus (0.6-2.1% of body length) and the arrangement of the transverse cirri (oblique row); Rimaleptus longitrichus, the arrange of contractile vacuoles and longitudinal ciliary rows anteriorly spaced; Frontonia subtropica, number of somatic kineties (approximately 115 rows) and vestibular kineties (5 rows).
