The intestinal drug-resistant bacteria of carps in three recirculating system ponds in Pusan from May to September 1981 were isolated. Both fishes and waters, sampled from the fish farm in National Fisheries University of Pusan and Nakdong River, were tested in 1982. As results of both experiments, although frequent occurrence of drug-resistant bacteria was low in comparison with the foreign countries, it showed incresing tendency in this experiments, and level of the drug-resistant tolerance was incresing gradually. To decrease drug-resistant bacteria of culturing waters and fishes in our country, it is nessesary that, we should diagnose diseases actually and cure them with a right prescription and dosage. .At the end, it is the best way not to abuse drugs fundamentally.

Anew species of cyprinid fish Acheilognathus koreensis is described from specimens collected in several rivers of southern part of Korea. In general aspect it is similar to A. liηzbata but differs form this by having large snout length, narrow interorbital width and characters of early developmental stage. The new species is distinguished from A. signifer by color parttern of dorsal and anal fin ray in male, and egg form and ovipositor length in female.

Fish were grown in a water recycling rearing system consisting of a filter system, of which the area is about $30\;m^2$ and the volume of filter gravels is about $15\;m^3$, 6 rearing and 2 supplementary tans about $7\;m^2$ of surface area each. The results for 180 days from April 18 to October 14,1980 are summarized as following: One rearing tank was used for main experiment stocked with an equal number, and weight of each Israeli strain and $F_1$, hybrid between this strain and Korean local strain of common carp. Gross total production was 461 kg with a net production of 395 kg, and the Israeli strain grew to about 8 times initial weight and the hybrid about 6 times. Based on an analysis of results of the above mentioned main experiment and the other miscellaneous fish grown in the remaining tanks, it was considered to be feasible to implement a commercial production in this system by improving parts of the system and adding a number of the units. A special problem seems to be an adoption of more effective aeration device when fish loading increases. A solid waste removal system was deviced by use of by-pass flow ana this system worked very efficiently in view of supply water economy. A serious problem encountered in this experiment was heavy outbreaks of the gill-fluke, Dactylogyrus sp. which was relatively easily eradicated with Dipterex or DDVP treatment in the first trials, but later on strains which were resistant to any of these chemicals appeared.

The estimated annual catch of river fishes in the lower part of the Naktong River was derived from the questionnaire, as a part of the fundamental investigation which was carried out for the development of fisheries In that region during the period of May 1967, to June 1968. The data were submitted by fishermen, and the area covered for the present investigation is shown in Fig.1. The annual catch of the region was estimated to be about 500 tons, excluding the mussel Cerbicula elatior. Prussian carp Carassius carassius was the largest in amount followed by com-mon carp Cyprinus carpio, and then goby Synechogobius hasta, Japanese eel Anguilla japonica, mullet Mugil cephalus, ect. and in that order. Major species of the fishes of this region belong to the carp family Cyprinidae, its species counting 23 from the collection during the observation period, and the total number of species was 40, these belonging to 14 families. But occasional severe drought heavily increase the salt content of the region, and at that time the major catch of fish becomes marine fishes such as Harengula zunasi, Clupanodon Punctatus, etc.

The fish fauna and the dynamics of fish community structure in Lake Uiam, Korea, were investigated from July 2003 to May 2004. During the surveyed period, 41 species belonging to 13 families were collected. There were 11 Korean endemic species (26.8%), including Rhodeusuyekii, Acheilognathus yamatsutae, Sarcocheilichthys nigripinis morii, Squalidus gracilis majimae, Squalidus japonicus coreanus, Microphysogobio yaluensis, Iksookimia koreensis, Koreocobitis rotundicaudata, Silurus microdorsalis, Liobagrus andersoni, and Odontobutis platycephala. Dominant species were Hemibarbus labeo (16.2%), Zacco platypus (13.8%), A. yamatsutae (11.8%), S. gracilis majimae (10.4%), Pungtungia herzi (5.8%), and Hypomesus olidus (4.3%). The biomass of collected fishes were H. labeo (35.9 kg), Cyprinus carpio (22.5 kg), Micropterus salmoides (5.5 kg), Lepomis macrochirus (5.2 kg), Carassius cuvieri (3.3 kg) and Z. platypus (2.4 kg). Of the 9 introduced fishes in Lake Uiam, Cyprinus carpio (Israeli type), Carassius cuvieri, Oncorhynchus mykiss irideus, Lepomis macrochirus, and Micropterus salmoides originated in foreign countries, but Anguilla japonica, Hypomesus olidus, Chaenogobius urotaenius, and Rhinogobius giurinus were introduced from other native river systems.

The purpose of the study was to introduce the fish fauna and distribution in the Shinpo district, North Korea. Sampling was carried out in October 1997, July 1998, May and October 2002, in sites located in the upstream, middle and down of the southern river of Bukcheong and three brackish lakes of Hommanpo, Daein and Hyunkum, respectively. A total of 29 species belonging to 11 families were found. Family Cyprinidae showed the prosperity in species number, comprising 28% among total species found. No natural monument fishes or rare fishes were captured. Ten commercial species, five anadromous ones and five brackish ones were identified. Feeding guilds was identified as 11 carnivores, 2 herbivores and 7 omnivores. Twenty species belonging to 7 families inhabited in the river, 18 species of 6 families in Lake Homanpo, 21 of 7 in Lake Hyunkum and 23 of 8 in Lake Daein, respectively. Ecological indices of richness, diversity and evenness were highest in Lake Daein and the dominace index was highest in Lake Hyunkum.

본 연구에서는 하천 식생 및 어류 모니터링 결과를 바탕으로 청미천 유역의 본류에 대한 하천 수변환경을 평가하였다. 하천 식생은 홍수 전과 후로 구분하여 2회 조사하였다. 식생 조사는 Braun-Blanque의 조사 방법에 따라 표본구 내의 출현식물에 대해 조사하였고 표본구 면적은 자생지 주변의 특징과 형성된 군락의 최소면적에 근거하여 $2{\ast}2m^2$ 결정하였다. 1, 2차 조사 결과 공히 국화과 식물이 많이 출현하였고 다음으로 벼과 식물이 많이 출현하였다. 청미천 조사구간에서 볼 수 있는 식물은 21개과 38종이 출현하고 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 이중 국화과 7종과 벼과 5종, 콩과 4종으로 출현종이 많이 조사되었다. 화봉천 합류점에서는 총 123마리를 포획하여 동종 분류한 결과 1개과 3개아과 7개종이 출현하였다. 1지점의 경우 출현어종은 모두 잉어과로 피라미가 48%로 우점종을 차지하고 있었다. 죽산천 합류지점에서는 총 83마리를 포획하였으며, 출현어종은 1개과 2개아과 7개종의 어류이며 그중 붕어와 피라미가 각각 31%와 23%로 우점하고 있었다. 청미천 조사구간의 출현어종의 개체수를 보면 피라미 68.5%, 붕어 44.3%, 떡붕어 18.1%, 모래무지 14.3%, 왜매치 14.1% 순으로 나타나고 있으며 기타 출현어종은 대부분 4% 내외로 피라미가 우점종으로 조사되었다.

The freshwater fish fauna were surveyed in the Sumsuk stream located in Kangreung, Korea in August and October, 1992. The collected fishes includ 19 species, representing 6 families and 14 genera. Of these, Phoxinus keumkang, Coreoleucisus splendidus and Cobitis rotundicaudata are endemic to Korea. The dominant species were Chaenogobius annularis $(32.2\%)$, Phoxinus phoxinus $(27.0\%)$ and P. lagowskii $(21.1\%)$. Comparing to the previous studies, drastic changes have been occurred not only in number of species, but also in species composition.

The freshwater fish fauna of Chirisan National Park, where dramatic environment changes will be expected due to develop tour and hiking, was censused to establish base line data for natural conservation program Four species belonging to 3 families included in Cyprindae, Amblycitidas and the present fishes were collected in this region. Dominant species was dark chub, therefore chareful organization of the tour development and the preservation of ichthyological fauna are strongly recommended.

The purpose of this study was to understand the evolutionary relationships between fish and other vertebrates which had DNA with the genetic defects in homoglobin expression, with comparison to the nucleotide homologies of the ${\beta}$-globin genes. The predicted amino acid sequence from carp ${\beta}$-globin gene was compared with those of other vertebrates from the published data. The nucleotide homologies of the predicted amino acid sequence from the carp ${\beta}$-globin gene with those of goldfish and mirror carp were high, and the rates were 97.3% and 93.9%, respectively. On the other hand, with the previously reported ${\beta}$-globins of goat, frog, human, rat, goose, chicken, and duck, it showed low homology ranging from 45.9 to 58.1%. The carp ${\beta}$-globin has one inserted amino acid residue, which was also found in other fish ${\beta}$globin, but not in other vertebrate ${\beta}$-globins.
