Comprative osteology of the chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta, masu salmon O. masou and rainbow trout O. mykiss in Korea was studied. As a result, it was found that there were some differences in the structural features of the cranium and visceral skeleton among the species. Interspecific differencies in glossohyal, supraethmoid, parasphenoid and vomer were distinctive for the species. Chum salmon could be distinguished easily by some characters on form of glossohyal which is thin, long and sharp in shape. It has triangle shape supraethmoid while other two species have oval shape one. The shape of parasphenoid, preopercle, hyomandibular and the number of epurals were evaluated as new taxonomic criteria for the salmons.

Thymelaeaceae in Korea includes ten species in five genera (Daphne, Diarthron, Edgeworthia, Stellera, and Wikstroemia). This study investigated the morphology of these species using herbarium specimens and fresh materials obtained during fieldwork to understand the variation level and to delineate each taxon in the family. Our comparative morphological analysis showed that the Korean taxa in Thymelaeaceae were easily distinguished based on their morphologies. It is easy to distinguish Daphne from Wikstroemia when the Korean taxa are considered. However, Daphne genkwa is morphologically similar to Wikstroemia based on the leaf arrangement, pubescence of the leaves, and the ovary shape. The results here suggest that further systematic studies of the Daphne group using more data are necessary.

In the present investigation, some multivariate discriminant analyses were done for each population of the native honeybee workers (Apis cerana), which were selected for 15 different localities in spring and 16 in summer form Korea. when the comparison of both seasons for different populations and regardless of seasons were conducted, all the classification results revealed that the differences were significantly prominent. And the length of fore tibia(FTL) was the best contributed character among the 47 morphometric characters used in the analysis.

The morphological characteristics of Chionanthus retusus Lindl. & Paxton in Korea are reviewed in this study through the comparison with its previous records and a distribution map of this species is created using previous flora and voucher specimens. The leaf epidermal micromorphology and the petiole anatomy are also briefly described.

문경산 흰 넓적다리 붉은 쥐, Apodemus peninsulae peninsulae, 의 염색체 핵형 분석과 단변량 및 다변량분석방법들을 사용한 등줄쥐, Apodemus agrarius coreae, 와의 형태적 형질의 비교를 하였다. 흰 넓적다리 붉은 쥐의 염색체수는 2n=50-54R지 수적 변이를 보였다. 차단부 염색체의 수는 48개로 개체간에 일정하였으나 , 중부 염색체의 수는 2-6개의 변이가 나타났다. 형태적 형질의 분석결과는 등줄쥐보다 흰 넓적다리 붉은 쥐가 크다고 판정되었으며 가장 구별이 잘 되는 경구개의 길이였다.

To examine taxonomic relationships among 53 plums derived from Prunus cerasifera, P. domestica, and P. salicina, principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis on 27 morphological characters were conducted. Of 27 characters, leaf size, leaf shape, and leaf hair were useful characters for plum identification and understanding of taxonomic relationships among them. Leaf length, petiole length, number of leaf nectaries, leaf shape, leaf base, and date of full blooming showed the clear differences between P. salicina group and P. domestica group. Results of cluster analysis using scores of the first three principal components indicated that 53 plums could be grouped into P. salicina-P. cerasifera, P. domestica, and P. spinosa phenon at 1.0 of average distance in UPGMA. Although PCA was useful for rough classification of plums, much more characters were needed for the exact classification.

Vegetative characters (e.g. habitat, root, ramification and habit of stem, phyllotaxy, leaf sape, shape of leaf margin, shape of division and lobe of division, number of division, thick and texture of leaf and shape of stipule) on 35 species of Asian Geranium were reviewed to discussion propriety of taxonomic character and evolutionary trends. Wilfordii group is characterized by three divided leaf, Farreri group was grown a high altitude, and Maculatum group is grouped by life cycle of anneal. Arrangement state of leaf is alternate type G, tripartitum, G. eriostemon, and G. erianthum is thought the more primitive than the other taxon, and regarded as more advanced group the sibiricum group and pseudosibiricum group which divided of leaf deeply. Shape of leaf, division degree of lobes, shape of leaf margin and number of division are considered a good identification characters because width of change are fixed between population.

The genus Actinidia has been recorded as having total six taxa, composed of four species and two varieties, in Korea. However, its taxonomy remains complex because of disagreement on taxonomic characters used for species boundaries. Based upon morphological, anatomical, and palynological characters, we re-evaluated species delimitations in the genus Actinidia. Critical observation of wild populations and extensive herbarium materials including types were also carried out. It is generally considered that leaf thickness and shape, hair type and color were important diagnostic characters to identify species, but these characters were insufficient to be diagnostic characters because of their wide variation ranges. On the other hands, pith pattern, winter bud protrusion rate, scale leaf number, anther color, fruit shape, and maturity season were taxonomic significance. A. arguta var. platyphylla and A. arguta var. rufinervis have been identified by hair type and color, but these characters showed continuous variation in A. arguta. Therefore, two varieties are treated as synonyms of A. arguta. Consequently four species are recognized in Korea: A. polygama, A. kolomikta, A. rufa, and A. arguta. A key is provided, as well as complete descriptions of the species examined, including information on nomenclatural types, and synonymies.

To clarify some ambiguous diagnostic characters of Callicarpa japonica Thunb. and Callicarpa dichotoma (Lour.) K. Koch in Korea (Verbenaceae), the external morphology and micromorphology (leaf, anther, pollen, fruit, in particular endocarp surface and structure) of two taxa are studied and described in detail. It is confirmed that the following characteristics (e.g., the stem outline in a cross-section, the bud shape and length, the corolla tube length and the lobe length, the pattern of the anther dehiscence and length, and the endocarp morphology) are useful for distinguishing these two taxa. In particular, following three characteristics are most useful for an identification: (1) the corolla tube length of C. japonica (2.5-4.6 mm) is longer than that of C. dichotoma (0.7-1.0 mm); (2) the anther is dehiscing by an apical pore at the anthesis of C. japonica, while it is opening by a long fissure from the apex to the base in C. dichotoma; and (3) the edge of the endocarp (lateral view) in C. japonica is concave, while in C. dichotoma it is shown to be flat. On the other hand, the teeth state on the leaf margin and the position of inflorescence are not good diagnostic characteristics for identification. Additionally, the keys for all known Callicarpa taxa in Korea are provided.
