A survey of insect fauna on Dokdo Island was conducted by Yeungnam University from 2009 to 2016. The survey locations were the two islands of Dokdo Island (i.e., East and West Islands), located in the East Sea of South Korea. As a result of the survey, we identified five orders, 20 families and 27 species including 10 species newly recorded on Dokdo Island, of which Eupelmus australiensis (Girault) is recorded for the first time in South Korea. In combination with the results of previous surveys made from 1981 to 2016, the insect fauna of Dokdo Island is now known to consist of 10 orders, 77 families and 164 species (and 29 additional undetermined species). In this paper, we list the insect fauna on Dokdo Island and present photographs of 10 species with brief taxonomic notes of a eupelmid species.

Background: Due to the rapidly changing climatic conditions, South Korea faces the grand challenge of exotic species. With the increasing human movement, the influx of alien species to novel regions is prevalent across the globe. The latest research suggests that it is easy to prevent the introduction and establishment of alien species rather than controlling their spread and eradication. Like other countries, the Korean Ministry of Environment released a list (in 2018) of 45 potential risky exotic fish species considered likely to be invasive candidate fish species if they ever succeed in entering the Korean aquatic ecosystems. Results: The investigation into the invasion suitability traits showed that potential risky fish species could utilize those features in becoming invasive once they arrive in the Korean aquatic ecosystems. If the novel species establish viable populations, they are likely to incur higher economic costs, damage the native aquatic fauna and flora, and jeopardize the already perilled species. Furthermore, they can damage the installed infrastructure, decline overall abundance and biodiversity, and disturb the ecosystem services. Here we reviewed the list of fish species concerning their family, native origin, preferred aquatic biomes, main food items, current status in Korea, and potential threats to humans and the ecosystems. Data shows that most species are either already designated as invasive in the neighboring counties, including Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, and China, or originate from these countries. Such species have a higher climate match with the Korean territories. Conclusions: Therefore, it is exceptionally essential to study their most critical features and take regulatory measures to restrict their entry. The incoming fish species must be screened before letting them in the country in the future. The regulatory authorities must highlight the threatening traits of such species and strictly monitor their entrance. Detailed research is required to explore the other species, especially targeting the neighboring countries fish biodiversity, having demonstrated invasive features and matching the Korean climate.

Spider fauna of Mt. Yongmunsan located in Yangpyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do, was surveyed from April to October in 1996. A total of 75 species of 51 genera in 22 families from 996 individuals of spiders were identified. Species richness of each family, there were 17 Araneid species (22.7%), followed by each of the 7 Thomisid and Tetragnathid species (9.3%), 6 Salticid species (8.0%), and 5 Lycosid species (6.7%). Zoogeographically, spider fauna of Mt. Yongmunsan represented 1 cosmopolitan species (1.3%), 2 holarctic region species (2.6%), and 9 palearctic region species (12.0%), and 4 Korean endemic species (4.0%). Thus it is suggested that spider fauna of Mt. Yongmunsan was under northern regional influence.

The vascular plants in the Mt. Hoemun were listed 541 taxa composed of 113 families, 354 genera, 473 species, 1 subspecies, 64 varieties and 3 forms. Divided into 541 taxa; woody plants were 151 taxa (27.9%) and herbaceous plants were 390 taxa (72.1%). Based on the list of rare plants by the Korea Forest Service, 10 taxa were recorded in the studied areas; Lilium distichum (Preservation priority order: No. 159), Lilium callosum (No. 191), Tricyrtis dilatata (No. 97), Iris ensata var. sponianea (No. 197), Gastrodia elata (No.9), Aristolochia contorta (No. 151), Paeonia obovata (No. 30: Legal protection species), Prunus yedoensis (No. 110 : Planted species), Viola albida (No. 202), Schpolia japonica (No. 208). Based on the list of Korean endemic plants, 15 taxa were recorded; Cephalotaxus koreana, Lilium amabile, Salix purpurea var. japonica, Pseudostellaria multiflora, Aconitum pseudolaeve var. erectum, Filipendula glaberrima, Weigela subsessilis, etc. Based on the list of approved for delivering overseas of plants, 10 taxa were recorded; Carex okamotoi, Lilium distichum, Clematis trichotoma, Vaccinium oldhami, Paulownia coreana, Asperula lasiantha; etc. Specific plant species by floral region were total 4S taxa (8.3% of all 541 taxa of vascular plants); Gastrodia elata, Paeonia obovata in class V, Carex arenicola, Corydalis grandicalyx in class IV, 5 taxa (Spiraea salicifolia, Schpolia japonica, Asperula lasiantha, etc.) in class III, 7 taxa (Lilium distichum, Iris ensata var. spontanea, Caryopteris incana, etc.) in class II and 28 taxa (Camptosorus sibiricus, Orixa japonica, Lonicera praeflorens, etc.) in class I. The naturalized plants in the surveyed sites were 13 families, 38 genera, 43 species, 2 varieties, 45 taxa (Phleum pratense, Medicago sativa, Sonchus asper, etc.) and naturalization rate was 8.3% of all 541 taxa of vascular plants. Ambrosia artemisiifolia var. elatior an ecosystem disturbing wild plants have been increasing. Therefore, the counter plants for continuous control and conservation are needed on the ecosystem of Mt. Hoemun.

한반도에 자생하는 여섯 종의 참나무는 소나무와 함께 흔히 발견되는 수종들로, 이들은 딱정벌레인 Platypus koryoensis에 의해 매개되는 Raffaelea속의 균류뿐만 아니라 다른 많은 균류들에 의해 피해를 입고 있다. 다양한 목재부후균의 목록을 조사함으로써 참나무와 균류사이의 상호관계와 참나무수림을 효과적으로 관리하는 방법을 좀더 깊이 이해하기 위한 초석이 될 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구에서는 서울대학교(Seoul National University Fungus Collection)와 국립생물자원관(NIBR)에 수장 중인 104종 523점의 목재부후균을 동정하여 전체조사목록을 제시하였다.

Before the construction of Hantangang dam, we surveyed vertebrate fauna along the Hantangang River and collected samples. We collected 248 specimens (1,394 individuals) of 41 fish species from 10 families in four orders, including 17 endemic species and 5 endangered species. In our herpetofauna survey, we collected 47 amphibian samples of 10 species from 5 families in 2 orders, and 19 reptile samples of 5 species from 2 families in 1 order. We observed 25 species of bird (6 orders, 14 families) inclulding collection of 51 bird specimens (10 species from 5 families in 1 order). We collected 91 mammals of 6 species, and identified 7 species from field sign and direct observation from a total of 10 families in 5 orders. This collection and list comprise the final vertebrate faunal survey of the Hantangang region, and will provide basic scientific information for future research on conservation and restoration of the region.
