To clarify the ants fauna in Chollabukdo, field survey was carried out for about 10 years from 1986 to 1995. As a result, 1,699 clonies were collected and identified. These clonies were composed of 76 species belonging to the 31 genera of 5 subfamilies. The list of ants in Chollabukdo was prepared with them involving a subfamily, 6 genera and 18 species newly recorded from Chollabukdo. In NSC analysis between areas, zones and clonies respectively, all 16 areas were continuous expect Bangchukdo. In block analysis of ant distribution. 28 species were found only in mountain-zone and 4 species in island-zone. Among 5 subfamilies distributied in Chollabukdo, Myrmicinae is the most abundant, but Cerapacinae is the oppisite. The Lasius of Formicinae is the most abundant genus among 31 genera investigated.

Smithistruma japonica(lto) unrecorded species of Dacetini tribe in Korea was found in Is. Kekumdo, Chonnam Province and named Saw teeth scale ant. The form-characteristics difference between Smithistruma japonica(Ito) and Strumigenys lewisi Cameron was discribed with the result of observation by the scanning electron microscope(SEM). Total species of Dacetini tribe in Korean contained two species in two genus.
