The first zoeal characters of plagusiine crab Plagusia dentipes De Haan, 1835, belonging to the family Grapsidae, is described and illustrated in detail based on laboratory-hatched material from an ovigerous female collected from Bomok, Seogwipo in the Jejudo Island. Morphological comparison is made with previous description of Plagusia dentipes from Japan. The first zoea of Plagusia dentipes can be readily distinguished from those of two species of Plagusia chabrus and Plagusia depressa by having 2 aesthetascs and 3 simple setae on the antennule, and 8 setae on the coxal endite of the maxilla.

One ovigerous crab of Hemigrapsus longitarsis (Miers, 1879) was collected in Jeju Island, Korea and their larvae were reared in the laboratory. Five zoeal and one megalopal stages are described and illustrated in detail. Morphology of the zoeas slightly differs from that in the previous record. Within the genus Hemigrapsus, H. longitarsis shows similarity closer to H. sanguineus and H. penicillatus than to H. sinensis based on the zoeal morphology. The zoeas of H. longitarsis can be distinguished from those of the two other species in having a dorsal carapace spine with minute spinules which is naked in H. sanguineus and H. penicillatus. A provisional key is provided to aid the identification of the grapsid zoeas in Korea.

The complete larval development of Chiromantes haematocheir was obtained by laboratory rearing. Five zoeal and one megalopal stages are described and illustrated in detail. Morphological characteristics of the larvae slightly differ from those of Lee (1988), especially in the setal presence of mouthpart appendages. Seven sesarminid zoeas (Parasesarma acis, Parasesarma pictum, Perisesarma bidens, Sesarmops intermedius, Chiromantes dehaani, Chiromantes haematocheir, and Nanosesarma gordoni) can be distinguished from each other in characters of the carapace spines, the antennal exopod and the fork of telson. A provisional key is first provided to aid the identification of seven sesarminid zoeas in Korea.

The complete larval development of Enocheir japonicus De Haan reared in the laboratory is described and illustrated. E. japonicus passes through 5 zoeal stages before metamorphosis to the megalopal stage. The megalopa and crab I inStar are attained in 17 and 27 days after hatching, respectively. The culture was carried out under a photoperiod of 14 h light and 10 h dark and a constant temperature of $25^{\circ}C$. Morphological charaderistics of each larval stage of this species are compared with those of E. japonicus from Japan. Morphological features between zoea I of the Varuninae are briefly discussed.

틸보꼬마풀게 (Hemigrapsus sinensis Rathbun) (바위 게 과, 참게 아과)의 유생을 부추에서부터 첫번째 게퇘까지 수온 20.2$^{\circ}C$에서 24.1$^{\circ}C$, 염분농도 32,9도에서 33.2%o에서 사육하고, 각 유생기의 형태적인 특징을 기술 및 도시하여, 같은 속내에 보고된 다른 7종의 유생들과 kk교하였다. 이 종은 5기의 Zoea와 1기의 Megalopa 유생을 거쳐 첫번째 게탰로 변태하였다. 제 1 Zoea기의 제 1촉각과 미절이 Aikawa의 기준에 의한 공형이며 갑측극은 있고 제 2소악내지의 강량식이 2.2인 점에서는 같은 속의 다른 7종과 일치하나, 제 1악각의 기절 및 내파와 제 2악각의 내지의 강모식에 약간의 차리가있다.

The complete larval development of Hemigrapsus penicillatus(De Haan, 1835) from hatching to first crab stage was obtained by culture in the laboratory. Under culture conditions with salinity 33.3% , temperature $25^{\circ}C$, and photophase 14/10 h light/dark, the megalopa and the first crab instar were attained in minimum of 18 and 29 days after hatching respectively. Five zoeal stages and a megalopal stage are described and illustrated in detail. Morphological characters of H. penicillatus larvae were compared with those of other members within the subfamily Varuninae. Morphological differences among H. penicillatus, H. sanguineus and H. sinensis in megalopal stage are tabulated.

The larval stages of Hemigrapsus sanguineus were reared in the laboratory and described with illustrative figures. Five zoeal and one megalopal stages were found in the complete larval development. At 25^{\circ}C.$, the megalopa and the first crab instar were attained in 18 and 31 days after hatching, respectively. The first zoeal larva of H. sanguineus showed the characteristics ~ h i c h coincide with those of the same genus by bearing lateral spines on carapace, B-types of telson and antenna, 1 +5 setae on the endopod of maxillule, and 2 + 2 setae on the endopod of maxilla. Morphological features of H. sanguineus larvae were compared to the previous descriptions of larvae of the same genus and morphological differences among them were discussed.

The complete larval development of the Korean grapsid crab, Acmaeopleura parvula Stimpson, from hatching to first crab was described and illustrated. Larvae were reared in 12 different combinations of temperature and salinity, and passed through five (uncommonly six) zoeal and a megalopal stage. Best survival to first crab stage occurred in $ 20^{\circ}C-31.4\%_{\circ}$. Development to first crab was 22-23 days $(at\;25^{\circ}C)$, 34-37 days $(at\;20^{\circ}C)$ and 50-51 days $(at\;15^{\circ}C)$. Additional sixth zoeae were obtained only at $15^{\circ}C$. Larvae of A. parvula were distinguished from the larvae of other Varuninae in the absence of lateral carapace spines and were morphologically similar to Caetice depressus (De Haan). Other characters of appendages were compared with those of the known larvae of the subfamily Varuninae.

한국해역에서 알려진 집게류는 12과 57종, 게류는 20과 183종이다. 집게류는 집게과 (Paguridae) (19종)와 넓적왼손집게 과 (Diogenidae) (12종) 의 종들이 많고 게류에서는 물맞이게 과 (Maidae) (33종) 의 종이 가장 asg고 다음이 바위게 과(Grapsidae) (29종), 부채게 과 (Xanthidae) (22종), 꽃게 과 (Portunidae) (16종) , 달랑게 과(Ocypodidae) (16종)의 순이다. 저자는 한국 해역을 동해, 대한해협, 제주도해역, 황해의 4구역으로 나누고, 집게류와 게류를 북방형, 온대형, 남방형의 3분지형으로 나누었다. 집게류의 경우 북방형 9종, 온대형 40종, 남방형 8종이고, 게류의 경우 북방형 7종, 온대형 87종, 남방형 89종이다. 집게류의 경우 동행 29종, 대한해협에 30종, 제주도해역에 30종, 황해에 21종이 게류의 경우 위의 순서대로 62종, 121 종, 104 종, 74종이 분포하며, 각 해역에서의 분포형도 고찰했다. 각 해역에만 분포하는 종의 수는 집게의 경우 동해에 8종, 대한해협에 3종, 제주도해역에 16종, 황해에 0종, 게류의 경우 위의 순서로 8종, 20종 40종, 12종이다. 집게류는 북방형종이, 게류는 남방형종이 비교적 많으며 동해에는 북방형종들이 제주도에는 남방형종들이 비교적 많다. 4구역 중 2 구역 (6조합) 사이의 유사계수(r=a/a+b+c)를 계산한 바 양 분류군 모두 대한 해협과 황해 사이의 유사성이 가장 크고 (집게류 ; 0.55, 게류 : 0.59), 제주도해역과 황해 사이의 유사성이 가장 적다. (집게류 ; 0.20, 게류 : 0.19). 분포상을 이해하기 위하여 각 해역의 환경조건도 알아보았는바, 분포의 양상과 해황과 잘 부합된다.
