Floristic composition and phytosociological studies of Mt. Chongok and Mt. Tuta were investigated, and that was compared with the previously published report in 1993. Vascular plants were composed of 100 families, 358 genera, 573 species, 95 varieties, and 18 formae, totaling 686 taxa. The vegetation was relatively well conserved based on Pteridophyta calculation (Pte-Q), 1.13. Compared with the vascular plants of the southern and northern slope area, the vascular plants of the southern slope area were composed of 87 families, 287 genera, 419 species, 73 varieties, and 11 formae, totaling 503 taxa, and those of the northern slope area consisted of 94 families, 293 genera, 427 species, 73 varieties, and 12 formae, totaling 512 taxa, respectively. Also, compared with the taxa in each side, both sides were composed of 332 species in common, southern sides, 172 species and northern sides, 182 species, respectively. The number of species of 11 families belonged to the higher level among total families taxa was composed of 328 species(47.8%). Among them, Compositae and Rosaceae were included much more species than remnant families. Korean endemic species were composed 16 families, 24 genera, 20 species, 8 varieties and 2 formae, totaling 30 species(4.4%). Compared with the Korean endemic taxa in each side, both sides were composed of 14 species in common, southern sides, 11 species and northern sides, 5 species, respectively. A naturalized plants were 20 species, correspond to 9.2% of totaling 218 species appeared in South Korea. Among them,12 species were appeared commonly in both sides, southern sides, 16 species and northern sides, 16 species, respectively. Life form spectra was H-D1-R5-e type and, useful resources plants are as follows; edible source(42.4%), medicinal source(31.5%), ornamental source(15.6%) and pasture source (13.3%) in the total region. The forest vegetation of the southern slope was classified into 1 order, 1 alliances and 5 communities; Rhododendro-Quercetalia mongolicae, Lindero-Quercion mongolicae, Quercus mongolica Typical community, Populus davidiana-Quercus mongolica community, Pinus koraiensis-Taxus cuspidata community, Pinus densiflora-Carex humilis var. nana community, Betula costata-Betula ermanii community. It is considered that the slight difference of the flora and vegetation in the northern and southern slope is mostly due to the topographical and climatic difference. Even closer investigation is required for the more accurate comparison in this area.

A study on the larval fish assemblage around the front area was conducted in the Korea Strait in August, 1993. The front was found in the shelf break located in $35{\sim}36^{\circ}N$. A total of 125 species were found in the study area. Of these Engraulis japonicus was the most dominant species comprising 84.3% of the total fish larvae collected and followed by Maurolicus muelleri accounting for 7.7%. Gobiidae, Callionymidae and Pomacentridae showed higher frequency of occurrence. These five species can be divided into three groups. First group was comprised in the larval fish species such as E. japonicus and Callionymidae which were found in the whole study area. The second group was comprised of Gobiidae and Pomacentridae which were found in the warm area located in the southern part of the front area. The other species was M. muelleri found in the cold area located in the northern part of the front area including the front area. The assemblage, geological distribution and body length composition of the fish larvae in the Korea Strait would be mainly determined by the spawning ecology of the fishes, and the geological distribution and structure of the front which is formed in the ocean boundary between the Tsushima Current and the East Sea Cold Water.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the distribution of epiphytic lichens that growing near the thermoelectric power plant to obtain a basic data for air environmental evaluation around the power plant. The study areas were all 12 places including ten sites near the power plant and two sites for control. All the number of lichens appeared in this study areas were 27 species. It showed to 4∼6 species within 4㎞ from the power plant, and coverage also was low. As receding from the power plant, both the number of species and overage increased. Parmelia tinctorum sensitive to air pollution did not appear within 4㎞ from the power plant, and it was regarded as the sensitive kind to air pollution. Lepraria sp.(13.40%), Parmelia austrosinensis (13.40%), and Dirinaria applanaita (13.40%) were distributed in all sites, and it could infer that they had tolerance to air pollution. The IAP (Index of Atmosphere Purity) values in Sadungdong Apsan, Seksangeabal and the Power plant were four times as low as those in Mt, Yeonwha, and it could infer that the air in those areas was not good. It was high IAP values as being distant from the power plant.

Structure of intertidal algal communities of the islands on the South Sea of Korea was studied in summer of 1987 and 1988. The area includes Manjedo, Ch'ujado, Kwantaldo, Munsom, Yosodo, Komumdo, Soridi, Yokchido, Pijindo and Hongdo. Three biologically distinct zones, were commonly recognized in the intertidal bulk of the all examined islands. In the high intertidal zone, only a few species showing thin, tubular and sheet like forms were observed, and the most abundant species was Gloiopeltis spp.. Corallina pilulifera, Hizikia fusiformis and Chondria crassicaulis were most abundant species of the mid intertidal zone, which was formed near the mean sea level. The structure of the low intertidal zone was much more complex than the high and mid, the most abundant species were Laurencia spp. and Sargassum sagamianum. All of the coarsely branched and articulated calcareous species were distributed below mean sea level.

An investigation was carried out to study the diversity of aquatic insects, functional feeding groups (FFGs), habitat oriented groups (HOGs), and species-specific distribution in the Taean area in Korea from June to August, 2015. As a result, a total of 72 species belonging to 30 families and six orders were identified in all the investigated regions. Odonata (22 spp.: 30.56%) was the largest group in species richness followed by Coleoptera (21 spp.: 29.16%), Hemiptera (17 spp.: 23.61%) and Diptera (8 spp.: 11.11%) while for Ephemeroptera and Trichoptera, only two species (2.78%) were found. In addition, Plecoptera and Megaloptera inhabiting clean and flowing waters were not found. In the FFGs, predators (48 spp.: 66.67%) were relatively larger as represented by Odonata, Coleoptera, and Hemiptera, whereas shredders and scrapers were lower in proportion. The dominant groups of HOGs were swimmers (24 spp.: 33.33%), climbers (18 spp.: 25.0%), and sprawlers (12 spp.: 16.67%), which were characterized as aquatic insects community of island. Four species: Cybister lewisianus Sharp, Helophorus auriculatus Sharp, Agrypnia pagetana Curtis, Diplonychus esakii Miyamoto & Lee that are designated as Endangered, Near Threatened, and Vulnerable (Korean Red List) have been found to inhabitthe Taean area. Also, two species belonging to the exportable species group (Ceriagrion auranticum Fraser, Paracercion melanotum (Selys)) and one species belonging to the climate-sensitive biological indicator group (Ischnura elegans (Van der Linden)) were identified. In this study, four significant species including the Endangered are presented on the Korean distribution map based on the information in the national ecosystem survey accumulated for 7 years (2006-2012) by the Ministry of Environment.

전보에서 외국산에 의해 기록된 한반도산 날개응애류 26종과 필자가 채집한 미기록종 29종 도합 65종의 목록을 발표한 바 있다. 그 후의 채집품을 조사결과 다수의 미기록종이 발견되었기에 전보를 증보하여 발표한다. 이로서 한반도산 날개응애류는 29상과, 59과, 99속, 158종이 되었다. 이밖에 미정리분중에도 약 50중의 미기록종이 포함되어 있으므로 한국산 날개응애류는 200여종이 되는 셈이지만 한국에 실재하고 있는 종수는 그 $2\~3$배가 될 것으로 추측된다. 또한 분포를 논할 단계는 아니지만 일본과의 공통종은 69종, 구주와의 공통종은 51종, 3자공통종은 55종이 되어 한반도 고유종은 34종이 된다. 그러나 우리나라와 인접해 있는 중국대륙의 날개응애상이 밝혀지면 고유종은 줄어들고 중국과의 공통종이 많아질 것이다.
