Bait formulations containing 50% micro-capsuled fenitrothion, 2.0% hydramethylnon or 0.8% chlorpyrifos were evaluated in an 8 week field experiment against German cockroach, Blattella germanica(L). In German cockroach infested 15 restaurants, micro-capsuled fenitrothion (avg. 82.8%) was more effective at reducing adult German cockroach populations than chlorpyrifos (avg. 68.4%), but was about equally as effective as hydramethylnon(avg. 86.1%). The baits of micro-capsuled fenitrothion (avg. 76.5%), hydramethylnon (avg. 82.8%) and chlorpyrifos (avg. 74.9%) almost equally reduced nymphal German cockroach populations in the field. Most baits remained in the bait stations at the heavily infested restaurants after the 8 week treatments. However, the contents of hydramethylnon baits had been subject to significantly greatest consumption (0.72g) and the remaining bait was on the average of 57% by German cockroaches. It was assumed that the previous phenomenon of extra consumption of bait was explained by the infesting cockroaches continuously taking these baits because of the mode of action, the bait food material and the population densities of German cockroaches.

To understand on-site feeding traits of Noctiluca scintillans with unprecedented high abundances around Dokdo in spring, 2014, the composition and abundance of food items in the digestive vacuole of the species were analyzed. Abundances of N. scintillans ranged from 4,328~17,791 inds.m^-3 around Dokdo during the study. The incidence of preyed items in the vacuole of N. scintillans ranged by averaged 32% (24~50%) in the surface waters around Dokdo. Diverse preyed items consisted of fecal pellet, protozoans, pollen, diatoms, dinoflagellates, copepods and ichtyoplankton, while fecal pellets were dominantly fed by N. scintillans (43%) and next by protozoans (19%), pollen (18%), diatoms (7%) and dinoflagellates (4%). Fecal pellet, protozoans and pollen were relatively preferred by N. scintillans compared to diatoms, dinoflagellates and ichtyoplankton based on the incidence in the food vacuoles. Present results indicated that high abundance of N. scintillans found around Dokdo was likely associated with non-phytoplankton items rather than previously well-known diatoms as prey during the study.

To enhance the control efficacy against cockroaches in dwelling space, repellent ("Push") was set down on one comer and a poison bait including attractant ("Pull") was on the opposite side. And we tested the control efficacy of Push-Pull strategy by behavior-stimuli of cockroaches. In a mini-field test, German cockroach males primarily chose shelters nearest to the attractant-treated surfaces and farthest from the repellent-treated surfaces. The consumption of food or bait was also highest from food nearest to the preferred shelters by push-pull effect. We evaluated the push-pull insecticidal efficacies of five essential oils belong to Citrus plant, namely, grapefruit, lemon, lime, orange, and petitgrain. The combined push-pull treatments appeared to be faster and higher insecticidal effects than single (pull) treatment, and the repellent efficacy of Citrus oils was in the order of grapefruit > lemon > lime > orange > petitgrain. Therefore, we propose the effective control of the german cockroach using Citrus oils as repellents and push-pull method into a limited area.

Rabbitfish hatchlings were given a mixed food of rotifers (Brachionus rotundiformis) and trochophore larvae of oyster. Only the oyster-trochophore larvae were found in the gut of 62-h old fish larvae. The fish larvae, fed on rotifer and ciliate alone did not survive. However, their survival increased to 3.3 % on the 10th day after hatching, when trochophore was supplemented. Corresponding with the accelerated growth, the number of rotifers consumed increased from 11 in a 5-day old fish to 165 in a IS-day old fish. In a field ecosystem containing live diatom, Nannochloropsis oculata, rotifers and copepods, fish larvae were shocked and the oyster's trochophore larvae were fed from 2 to 7 days after hatching. A total of 76,000 seedling were produced after 50 days of hatching with 12.7 % survival. Mean total length and body weight were 65.6 mm and 3.4 g, respectively. Growth of body length (BL), body height (BH), body weight (BW) and head length (HL) as a function of the total length (TL) showed regressional relationships as follows; BL=0.8565 TL+0.0852 ($t^2$=0.9996); BH=0.3207 TL - 0.5052 (($t^2$=0.9641) BW=0.0652 TL2.3508 (($t^2$=0.9925); HL=0.2595 TL - 0.1898 (($t^2$=0.9901)

This study was conducted to establish a nce insect pest control system, ~ es.ys tematic application of insecticides using carbohran and buproiezin, in Korea. The effects oi various dates of application and rates of buprofezin (25% WP) after carbofuran (3G) soil incorpombon in late May on the pop~~lation densities of the brown planthoppa (BPH) immigrating in July were investigated Appropriate application tune of buprofezin for the BPH that had evaded insecticidal effect of 5011 incorporated carbofuran was late July-early August. Application rate of buprofezln at 7.0g a.i/lOa was enough to suppress the BPH density. Buprofezin treatment after carbofumn soil incorporation could also suppress the whlte backed planthopper population but did not affect the densities oi the paddy rice spiders. Considering the charactenstics of occurring patterns of the nce insect pests in Korea. buprofezin treatment m late July or early August after carbofuran soil incorporation in late May can be a useful application system of ir~sectic~deins controlling early season Insect pests and migmtoly planthoppers on rice.

We investigated the abundance and composition of the zooplankton community around Dokdo in the East Sea from 2006 to 2015. Zooplankton samples were collected in the surface mixed layer by vertical hauls using a standard type net at the monitoring stations. There were no clear long-term trends in the average temperature and salinity, but relatively low salinity was recorded in the summer of 2013 and 2015. The average abundances of zooplankton in the summer increased by two orders of magnitude from $317inds./m^3$ in 2008 to $10,242inds./m^3$ in 2015. This long-term increase was accompanied by a slight increase in the chlorophyll-a concentration and a decrease in the catch of potential crucial predators (anchovy, mackerel pike, squid, herring and horse mackerel) in the study area. The dominant zooplankton, accounting for most of the long-term increase, consisted of appendicularian (Oikopleura spp.), which showed a steady increase since 2012, summer species such as Noctiluca scintillans and the cladoceran Penilia avirostris, which showed an abrupt increase, and the copepod Paracalanus parvus s.l., which showed a rapid increase after its first occurrence in summer 2010. These results suggest that the long-term increase of zooplankton could be related to the increase in the concentration of prey and the decrease in the predation pressure of potential predators around Dokdo in the study area.

히드라란 단세포 생물로써 강장동물에 속한다. 촉수가 많이 있으며, 그 촉수에는 독이 있다. 번식 방식으로는 출아법을 이용한다. 출아를 할 때에는 한 마리가 아닌 여러 마리의 히드라가 동시에 출아를 하기도 하며, 출아를 하고 있는 히드라는 촉수가 들어난 순간부터 먹이 섭취가 가능해진다. 이 출아법을 이용하여 번식을 하는 히드라가 DBD처리를 했을 시, 히드라 출아에 차이를 보인다면 다른 생물에게도 DBD 처리를 했을 시, 영향을 미친다고 생각하고 실험을 진행하였다. DBD(Dielectric Barrier Discharge)는 두 전극 사이에 유전체층이 있으며, 외부에서 교류 전압을 가해준다. 그러면 유전체 사이에서 방전이 발생되는데, 방전된 것을 플라즈마라고 한다. DBD라는 유전체 장벽 방전으로써 주위를 이온화 시켜 만드는 플라즈마에 유전체를 씌어 생물에게 최대한 해가 되지 않도록 만든 것이다. 유전체 장벽 방전에ROS(Reactive Oxygen Species)라는 산소와 결합된 기체들이 생성된다. DBD로 인해서 생성되는 ROS를 히드라에 처리했을 경우 히드라 출아수에 변화를 통해서 해를 끼치는 정도를 알아보고자 하였다. 그 결과 아르곤 기체에 의한 ROS로 처리한 히드라는 대조군 보다 히드라의 출아수의 변화가 있는 것으로 관찰되었고, 공기를 이용하여 방전한 DBD의 ROS로 처리한 히드라는 대조 군과 비교하여 큰 변화가 없어 보였다. 따라서 아르곤 대기압 DBD플라즈마를 이용하여 만든 ROS가 히드라에게 직접적인 영향을 준 것으로 보였다. 이 결과를 토대로 아르곤DBD를 이용한 ROS 처리는 생물에게 영향을 줄 수 있다는 것을 이 실험을 통해 간접적으로 확인해 볼 수 있었다.

This study aims to investigate whether geographical variation affects the antibacterial component properties of honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) venom in Korea. Honeybee venom samples were collected from May to September, during 2010 and 2011, from 35 different sites, and were analyzed for major components, including melittin, apamin and phospholipase A2 were determined by a liquid chromatography using ammonium formate, acetonitrile, trifluoracetic acid. On average, melittin, apamin and phospholipase A2 were determined $55.2{\pm}2.07%$, $22.57{\pm}0.103%$, and $12.51{\pm}0.37%$, respectively. The ratio of the major components, including melittin, apamin and phospholipase A2 did not differ significantly according to flower or temperature during collections (One way-ANOVA, Duncan's test (${\alpha}$=0.05)).

This study is conducted to develop new termite colony elimination system that can control termite colony much faster, and to eco-environmentally prevent termite damage occurred in wooden cultural heritage. As a result of laboratory test, we developed a component system, of which fipronil 0.001% (w/w) treated bait was used as a suitable termite colony eliminator. This system can be monitored without taking off underground, and it makes regular monitoring much more efficient. The result of field test showed that 36 termite baiting devices among 367 installed devices were damaged by foraging termites. After baiting, all of termite colonies attracted to devices were eliminated or their activity clearly decreased.

Collection of organisms for the fisheries resources community were obtained with a set net during 8 months between May, 1985 and May, 1986 on the coast of Pukchon, Cheju Island, Korea. Most of organisms, representing 36 species, were less than 20cm $(93\%)$ in length, and 130g $(91\%)$ in weight. The four most abundant species were jack mackerel, Trachurus japonicus ; squid, Todarodes pacificus : damsel fish, Chromis notatus : and rabbit fish, Siganus fuscescens, which comprised about $83\% in number and about $73\%$ of the total catch. The diversity index of the number of species and information indices for individual and catch were the highest in October and the lowest in Septemer, indicating a close relationship with the change between the species number and catch at that time. A cluster analysis of 17 species was illustrated from the similarity matrix. All of the 17 species were grouped at the 0.2 similarity level. Three groups were present at 0.60 level, whereas species in other groups were sporadic in occurrence.
