Taxonomic confusion has been presented within freshwater crayfishes of the genus Cambaroides since Starobogatov published morphological definition and revision of the group in 1995. He suggested that Cambaroides should be revised: the C. dauricus, contained three species C. dauricus, C. wladiwostokiensis, and C. koshewnikowi; the C. schrenckii with two. species C. schrenckii and C. sachalinensis. Also Straovogatov did not take into account the previous data. of crayfish distributions. In order to. clear up the confusion, the taxonomy of crayfish sampled from Mongolia, Russia, China, and North Korea was reassessed. Starovogatov's key could not lead to the correct identification. Also, detailed observations of apical robe of the male first pleopod did not support the taxonomy on the genus Cambaroides proposed by Starobogatov in 1995. However, some local variations of morphology exist in rostrum, pleuron, and telson of Asian crayfish. Future studies should be concentrated on whether there are geographical clines of morphology or if taxonomic subdivision is necessary.

1986년 8월부터 12월까지 낙동강 하구에서 161주의 운동성 Aeromona를 분리한 후 42가지의 형태학적, 생화학적 특성은 조사하여 cluster 분석을 한 결과 85% 유사도 수준에서의 3개의 주 cluster와 84% 유사도 수준에서의 2개의 소수 cluster의 5 cluster로 나눌 수 있었다. 각 cluster는 MR반응과 glucose으로부터의 가스생성 여부의 생화학석 특성에 의하여 구분이 되었다. 2개의 소수 cluster를 포함한 5새의 cluster는 교차응집 실험에 의해 크게 2개의 혈청학적 cluster로 나뉘어졌으며, 이러한 결과는 독성실험에 의한 grouping 결과와 일치하였다.

A eunicid polychaete, Marphysa victori Lavesque, Daffe, Bonifácio & Hutchings, 2017 is described for the first time from the intertidal zones of the Korean coasts. It is characterized by having three types of pectinate chaetae (INS, isodont-narrow-slender; AWS, anodont-wide-slender; and AWT, anodont-wide-thick), appearance of pectinate chaetae from chaetiger 2, the chaetae consisted of pectinate and compound spinigers, and pygidium with one pair of pygidial cirri. In genetic analysis based on cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), intra-specific genetic distance between the specimens of M. victori from its type locality, France and Korea are in the range of 0.000-0.013. This paper includes the morphological description and photographs of M. victori new to Korean fauna, with partial sequences of the mitochondrial COI as DNA barcode data on this species.

A hesionid species, Leocratides kimuraorum Jimi, Tanaka and Kajihara, 2017 is newly reported from the sublittoral zones (100 m depth) of the Korean coasts. This species is characterized by lateral antennae as long as the palps, peristomial membrane without papillose, peristomial dorsolateral tubercles with two round marginal lobes, and pharyngeal with terminal papillae. The intra-specific genetic distance among the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I(COI) sequences of L. kimuraorum specimens from Japan (type locality) and Korea (this study) was in the range of 0.002-0.005. The inter-specific genetic distance between L. kimuraorum and other hesionid species were 0.166-0.307. The present study is the first record of Leocratides species in Korean fauna. This paper also provides a morphological description and photographs of L. kimuraorum, with partial sequences of the mitochondrial COI based on Korean specimens.

Laelapinae mites are involved in transmission of microbial diseases between wildlife and humans, with an impact on public health. In this study, 5 mite members in the subfamily Laelapinae (laelapin mites; LM) were morphologically identified by light microscopy, and the phylogenetic relationship of LM was analyzed in combination with the sequence information of part of the LM cytochrome oxidase subunit I (cox1) gene. The morphological identification revealed that 5 mites belonged to the genera Laelaps and Haemolaelaps, respectively. Sequence analysis showed that the ratio of nonsynonymous mutation rate to synonymous mutation rate of LM was less than 1, indicating that the LM cox1 gene had undergone purifying selection. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the Laelapinae is a monophyletic group. The genera Haemolaelaps and Hyperlaelaps did not separated into distinct clades but clustered together with species of the genus Laelaps. Our morphological and molecular analyses to describe the phylogenetic relationships among different genera and species of Laelapinae provide a reference for the improvement and revision of the LM taxonomy system.

한국산 감탕나무속 식물 8분류군 24집단으로부터 32개의 형태형질을 조사하였고, 수리분류학적분석을 실시하여 속내 분류군들의 한계를 논의하고자 하였다. 주성분분석결과, 주성분 1, 2, 3이 전체분산값 기여도의 67.0%와 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 전체 분산값에 대한 기여도는 주성분 1, 2, 3이 각각 31.5, 21.1, 14.4%로 각각 나타났다. 또한, 주성분 분석 1, 2, 3에 영향을 미치는 중요한 형질들은 꽃받침, 꽃잎, 약, 암술 및 열매의 형태 등의 생식형질과 엽병과 엽연의 형태, 소지의 모용, 잎의 지속성 등의 영양형질 등으로 나타났다. 주성분적재값을 기초로 2차원 공간배열을 실시한 결과, 한국산 감탕나무속은 감탕나무, 호랑가시나무, 완도호랑가시나무, 먼나무, 대팻집나무와 민대팻집나무, 그리고 꽝꽝나무와 좀꽝꽝나무로 6개의 유집군을 형성하였다. 주성분분석결과, 취급된 분류군들은 종 집단간의 비교적 명확한 한계를 보이며 독립적인 배열을 나타내어 수리분류학적 연구는 감탕나무속 분류에 유용한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 수리분류학적 연구결과에 의한 형태학적 식별형질을 기초로 새로운 종검색표를 작성하였다.

The present work is aimed at providing additional new pure cultures of oxalate utilizing bacteria and its preliminary characterization for further work in the field of oxalate-metabolism and taxonomic studies. The taxonomy of 14 mesophilic, aerobic oxalotrophic bacteria isolated by an enrichment culture technique from soils rhizosphers, and the juice of the petiole/stem tissue of plants was investigated. Isolates were characterized with 95 morphological, biochemical and physiological tests. Cellular lipid components and carotenoids of isolates were also studied as an aid to taxonomic characterization. All isolates were Gram-negative, oxidase and catalase positive and no growth factors were required. In addition to oxalates, some of the strains grow on methanol and/or formate. The taxonomic similarities among isolates, reference strains or previously reported oxalotrophic bacteria were analysed by using the Simple Matching (S/ sub SM/) and Jaccard (S$\_$J/) Coefficients. Clustering was performed by using the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) algorithm. The oxalotrophic strains formed five major and two single-member clusters at the 70-86% similarity level. Based on the numerical taxonomy, isolates were separated into three phenotypic groups. Pink-pigmented strains belonged to Methylobacterium extorquens, yellow-pigmented strains were most similar to Pseudomonas sp. YOx and Xanthobacter autorophicus, and heterogeneous non-pigmented strains were closely related to genera Azospirillum, Ancylobacter, Burkholderia and Pseudomonas. New strains belonged to the genera Pseudomonas, Azospirillum and Ancylobacter that differ taxonomically from other known oxalate oxidizers were obtained. Numerical analysis indicated that some strains of the yellow-pigmented and nonpigmented clusters might represent new species.
