  • Four new Korean records of the gammarid (Crustacea, Amphipoda), Grandidierella fasciata Ariyama, 1996; Moolapheonoides acutifalcatus Kobayashi and Ishimaru, 2005; Guernea terelamina Hirayama, 1985; and Gordonodius zelleri (Berge, Vader and Coleman, 1999) were reported from the Korean indigenous species survey project funded by the National Institute of Biological Resources (2014-2015). Each of these species is well accorded with the original description for the species except for some minor morphological differences. The genera Moolapheonoides Barnard, 1974 and Gordonodius Ariyama, 2011 are reported for the first time from Korea.

  • Gammaropsis utinomii (Nagata, 1961), an incompletely known species of gammaridean amphipod, is redescribed in detail based on the specimens from the southern coast of Korea. The expanded basis of pereopod 7 of this species allows it to be distinguished from its congeners.

  • Seven geographical variation types of G.sobaegensis in South Korea were reported by Kim and Lee(1977) and Lee and Kim (1980). After extensive reexamination, we considered type 4, one of the variation types collectd from various localities of Kyongsangbuk-do Pongwha-gun, as a new species This new species is named as Gammarus longisaeta and fully described and illustrated. Adding this new species, total 9 species of freshwater Gammarus are Known to Korea.

  • This study deals with 8 species in 6 genera including 5 new species and 2 new records from Taiwan. The new ones are Neanura kentingensis n.sp., Womersleya formosana n.sp., Crossodinthina montana n.sp., Vitronura tubercula sp., Lobella nana n.sp., and 2 new records are Pseudachorucina nepalica Yosii, 1966 and Lobella perfusa Denis., 1934. The Neanuridae fauna of Taiwan accordingly is listed as 13 species in 7 genera. The biogeographic affinities with the Japan, Vietnam and adjacent countries are discussed.

  • Lee and Kim(1980) reported seven geogrphical variation types of G. sobaegensis from South Korea. Extensively reexamining the speciemsns of variation type 2 , type 3 and type 7 collected at various localities, the authors found that three of them were not variation types but distinct new species , and named G.kyonggiensis and G. wangganensis , These two new species are fully described with illustrations and their distribution is also given.

  • From an examination of caprellid specimens collected from Korea, we found a new species belonging to the genus Perotripus. This new species is clearly distinguished from two previously recorded species, P. brevis and P. keablei, in having an acute projection and blunt apex of distal segment of pereopod 5. This genus Perotripus is reported from Korea for the first time. We described it with figures in detail. As a result, Korean caprellid fauna consists of 35 species in seven genera.

  • A newly recorded species of gammaridean amphipod, Synopia (Telsosynopia) trifidilla Hughes and Lowry, 2006 belonging to the family Synopiidae Dana, 1853 was collected from the southern Korean coasts. Synopia (Telsosynopia) trifidilla Hughes and Lowry is characterized by the entire telson with a trifid apical margin. The species is described and fully illustrated in the present study. This is the first record of the family Synopiidae from Korea.

  • Jassa slatteryi was redescribed as a new record to Korean fauna, accompanied by the morphological account in comparison with Jassa falcata Montagu, 1808. This work was based on the specimens which were collected from the screw of the international trade ship, named Hanjin, anchored in Samcheon-po bay of the south coast of Korea in 2004.
