The Genus Cis Latreille known as fungivorous ciids is taxonomically reviewed for the first time from Korea. Six unrecorded species - Cis boleti (Scopoli, 1763); Cis seriatopilosus Motschulsky, 1861; Cis mikagensis Nobuchi & Wada, 1955; Cis jezoensis Nobuchi, 1960; Cis sasajii Kawanabe, 2001; Cis hieroglyphicus Reitter, 1877- are present. All of Cis members are associated with the fruiting body of higher fungi. The author provides the taxonomical information and the ecological information on the host fungi of the Korean Cis species.

The taxonomic revision of the genus Sillago was made on the basis of the speciemens collected in the Korean coasts during from June, 1990 to April, 1995. The famfly Sillaginidae of Korea are composed of 3 species in only one genus Sillago S. japonica, S. sillama, and S. parvisquamis. Among them S.parvisquamis is newly recorded from Yosu of Korea by present study.

We isolated fungal spores belonging to the phylum Glomeromycota from the rhizospheres of Smilax china, cultured in a greenhouse. We identified the isolated spores using sequence analysis of 18S partial rDNA region, internal transcribed spacer and 28S rDNA regions. We confirmed 2 unreported spores of Glomeromycota fungal species, Diversispora eburnea and Paraglomus laccatum. Here, we described the morphological characteristics and results of phylogenetic analysis of the confirmed species.

Taractichthys steindachneri is described based on two specimens (224.7~406.5 mm SL) collected from the south sea including the adjacent water of Jeju Island, representing a reliable first record from Korea. The species is characterized by having well-separated each pelvic fin, semicircular groove on dorsal surface of caudal peduncle, well-elongated dorsal and anal fin rays, nearly uniformly blackish body color with white margined caudal fin.

Endophytic fungi were isolated from the leaves of plants inhabiting the Hansando Island in Korea. We identified the fungal strains based on their morphological characteristics and on the phylogenetic analysis using DNA sequences of the internal transcribed spacer, small subunit rDNA, large subunit rDNA, and translation elongation factor 1- α regions. In this study, we isolated five endophytic fungi that have not been recorded in Korea, Arthrinium camelliaesinensis, Beltraniella humicola, B. portoricensis, Microxiphium theae, and Piceomphale pinicola. Their morphological characteristics as well as the results of molecular phylogenetic analysis are reported here.

We isolated endophytic fungi from the leaves of the conifer Juniperus chinensis var. sargentii inhabiting Mt. Hallasan. The fungal isolates were identified based on phylogenetic analysis using nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region, large subunit region of ribosomal DNA, translation elongation factor, and ${\beta}$-tubulin region. In this study, we confirmed four species of unreported endophytic fungi in Korea, Allantophomopsis lycopodina, Epicoleosporium ramularioides, Kabatina juniperi, and Seiridium podocarpi. We describe their morphological characteristics and the results of the phylogenetic analysis.

This is a report of an unrecorded species of Hedyotis from Korea, Hedyotis chrysotricha (Palib.) Merr., found in Yeongam-gun, Jeollanam-do. The species can be distinguished from other Hedyotis species by trichomes that cover the entire plant, ovate leaves, mauve or white corolla, and the corolla lobe of which the length measures more than twice its width. The species was named after its findspot and is hence called 'Yeongam-pul.' An illustration, description and key to the taxa related to Hedyotis are provided.

Among areas in Korea, Cheju Island and its vicinity are inhabited by the most diverse sponges , and a number of species have been recorded as new to science or new to Korean founa, Forty species of sponges belonging to 29 genera in 21 families were identified as a result of research based on the materials deposited in the Department of Biology, Hannam University and the Department of Biology. Ehwa Woman's University. These species had been collected in Cheju Island and its vicinity. Three species are known to be new to science, and nine other species discovered for the first time from Korea. The new species are described with detailied illustrations, and for the new records for Korea the remarks and illustrations are prepared.

A single specimen of Carangoides oblongus (133.8 mm SL) belonging to the family Carangidae was firstly collected by a set net from the coastal waters of Jeju Island, Korea. This species resembles Carangoides dinema, but the former is morphologically distinguishable from the latter by lateral line being shorter than straight part, the number of lateral line scutes (37~45 in C. oblongus vs. 20~30 in C. dinema), second dorsal fin rays (20~22 vs. 17~19), and anal fin rays (18~19 vs. 15~17). We newly add this species to the Korean fish fauna and propose its new Korean name "Chae-jjik-yu-jeon-gaeng-i".
