  • The Korean Boletoxenus known as fungivorous are taxonomically reviewed as two species including a new recorded species, Boletoxenus incurvatus (Lewis, 1894). And the host fungus of B. incurvatus is revealed through this study. Therefore, we provide the taxonomical information as well as the ecological information on the host fungi of the Korean Boletoxenus species.

  • We conducted taxonomic study of Languriinae in Korea. Nine species that belong to two genera of one tribe were identified in Korea. Two species, Anadastus ruficeps (Crotch) and Anadastus praetermissus (Janson), were recorded for the first time in Korea. Description, photographs of adults, illustrations of diagnostic characteristics, and a key have been provided.

  • The taxonomic note was given to the species of Ceramium from Ullungdo Island. Five species, Ceramium aduncum Nakamura, C. codii (Rhichards) G. Mazoyer, C. flaccidum (Harvey exK tzing) Ardissone, C. paniculatum Okamura, and C. tenerrimum (Martense) Okamura were collected during this study. C. aduncum was collected in the intertidal and upper subtidal zones from December to Feburary. They had a narrow internodal space showing 1/3-1/5 times as large as nodal band. C. codii had the spermatangial mother cells developed on abaxial cortical cells of cortical band C. paniculatum collected in summer and winter had a creeping thallus and alternative branching type in gross morphology. The axial cell of C. flaccidum showed 2.3-2.8 L/B ratio, smaller than those of plants from Chejudo Island.

  • A taxonomic study of the Korean Hydrochus Leach is presented. They inhabit in the margins of shallow lentic water with plentiful vegetation. The genus Hydrochus Leach contains about 28 species in the Palaearctic region and only H. japonicus Sharp is recently listed in Korea. Here, two species are recognized, one of which is reported for the first time in Korea (H. chubu Balfour-Browne & Sat$\hat{o}$). This species are distinguished from H. aequalis Sharp by impressed pronotum and from H. japonicus by dark brown elytra. Habitus photographs, descriptions, and diagnostic characters with illustrations of the species are provided.

  • An adenosine deaminase inhibitor-producing bacterium was isolated from soil. An isolate exhibiting high adenosine deaminase inhibitory activity, was designated J-89, and classified as a strain of Bacillus subtilis on the basis of its morphological, phenotypic characteristics, the menaquinone content and cellular fatty acid composition. To confirm the taxonomic position of the strain we need more information such as DNA-DNA homology and other chemotaxonomic characteristics. In this paper we provisionally named strain J-89 as Bacillus sp. J-89 pending further chemotaxonomic study and analysis of adenosine deaminase inhibitor.

  • Specimens belonging to the genera Mycena and Collybia which have been preserved in the herbarium of National Institute of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, Suwon, Korea were investigated. Among them, four species were confirmed to be Hydropus species viz Hydropus marginellus, H. nitrata, H. erinensis, and H. floccipes. Authors registered them to the Korean mycoflora with full descriptions, illustrations and Korean names.
