To understand restoration and conservation projects conducted in Korea for endangered freshwater fishes and amphibians/reptiles, information about Request for Protocols-related studies on restoration, breeding, and release were collected. Trends of studies were visualized via word clouds and VOSviewer program using a text mining technique. Analysis of restoration projects for endangered freshwater fishes elucidated that most research studies conducted to date were focused on genetics and release through captive breeding that could be classified into captive breeding and habitat environments. As for research projects related to amphibians/reptiles, monitoring projects had the highest number, followed by genetic, translocation, and monitoring studies. In addition, restoration projects for amphibians/reptiles included a large number of post-capture translocation projects. Thus, many projects were confirmed by public institutions rather than by the Ministry of Environment. Network analysis revealed that it was largely classified into capture, translocation, and Kaloula borealis. Based on these results, limitations, achievements, and challenges associated with projects conducted thus far are highlighted. Research directions for future restoration and conservation of endangered freshwater fishes and amphibians/reptiles in South Korea are also suggested.

This study was conducted to elucidate microplastics detection of freshwater ecosystems in Geum river. Samples are collected at 6 points in freshwater, 5 points in fishes. Freshwater was sampled 100 L per each points and fish species were Opsariichthys uncirostris amurensis, Hemibarbus labeo, Pseudogobio esocinus, Zacco platypus, Micropterus salmoides and Cyprinus carpio. FTIR analyis was adopted to identify microplastic types. Extracted microplastics were PES (polyester), PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PVC(Polyvinyl chloride) in freshwater, and PES, PE, PP, PET, PVC in fishes. Our results were expected to be used basic research information for further study in microplastics of freshwater ecosystems.

Primordial germ cell (PGC) is the progenitor cell of the germ cell lineage and eventually give rise to gametes that are responsible for creating individual organisms via a fertilization process. This means that PGC is a unique cell that can be converted into individual fish. This advantage of PGCs would make it possible to develop various applications in the field of fish bioengineering. First, PGCs may make it easier to preserve the genetic resources of fish. Cryopreservation of fish eggs or embryos has not been successfully achieved so far. Therefore, the only possible method to preserve genetic resources of fishes is to raise fish as live individuals. If PGCs isolated from various fishes could be cryopresewed, these cells could be converted into live fishes via germ-line chimera production. This is particularly useful for preserving genetic materials of endangered species. Even if the species of interest were to become extinct, it could be recovered by the transplantation of cryopreserved PGCs into the embryos of a closely related species. Another application of this technology is in what could be termed "surrogate broodstock technology". (중략)

The accurate estimation of fish assemblages is highly dependent on the sampling gear used for sampling. We used data from 15 sampling sites along the Nakdong River, which is a large river in South Korea, to identify differences in assemblages and sizes of freshwater fishes collected with either cast nets or gill nets, the two most commonly used sampling gear in South Korea. The two gears differed in the fish assemblages they captured, with more species caught by gill nets. Further, due to its tighter mesh size, the cast net caught significantly smaller fishes than the gill nets(independent t-test, p<0.05). We found the cast net to be appropriate for species that inhabit shallow (less than 2 m) and open water, but inappropriate for deep water, habitats with plant beds, and nocturnal species. Thus, cast net sampling is not efficient in a large river environment, and a combination of sampling methods is more suitable for understanding fish assemblages in such habitats. In general, appropriate selection of fishing methods to specific habitats is necessary to improve data quality and minimize the misrepresentation of environmental conditions.

1. Hanoi city was built up on the wetland landscape of the Red River delta therefore it has a network of many lakes and rivers. 2. The aquatic biodiversity (Macrophytes, Invertebrates, Fishes, Vertebrates) of the 6 main lakes (Ho Tay, Hoan Kiem, Bay Mau, Giang Vo, Dong Da, Thanh Nhan) are rich and diverse. It represents the patterns of Red River delta one's. Many rare and endangered species are found in these lakes Particularly a giant freshwater turtle species in Hoan Kiem lake. 3. All of these lakes are more or less polluted. Their environments are seriously degrading both in water quality and aquatic biodiversity. 4. Based on socio-economical and cultural role of these lakes of Hanoi city, it is very necessary to preserve and to restore their environments and aquatic biodiversity: water Pollution control, landscape planning, making roads around the lakes and erosion control for their banks, legislation measures, rational exploitation of aquatic biodiversity, restoration the artificial wetlands with macrophytes.

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.

잉어과에 속하는 모래주사 Microphysogobio koreensis는 현재 환경부에 의해 멸종위기종 2급으로 지정되어 보호받고 있는 고유종이다. 본 연구에서는 모래주사의 산란장 하상구조 등의 산란 미소서식 환경을 조사하였다. 이들의 산란 서식처는 큰돌, 작은돌, 자갈, 잔자갈 등으로 구성된 Bb type이며, 수심은 약 0.3~1.0 m, 유속은 빠른 $0.5{\pm}0.2$ m/sec으로 나타났다. 실제로 산란이 일어나는 산란장은 수심이 $0.4{\pm}0.1$ (0.4~0.6)m로 얕은 반면에 유속은 $0.8{\pm}0.1$ (0.6~0.9) m/sec로 빨랐으나 수정란이 부착되어 있는 장소는 오히려 0.4 m/sec로 느렸다. 산란은 수온이 $20^{\circ}C$가 되는 5월초에 이루어졌으며, 자갈 표면이나 틈 사이에 알을 낳는다. 이러한 산란장의 특성은 수정란이 휩쓸려 나가지 못하게 하는 기능과 함께 산소공급을 원활하게 하는 역할을 할 것으로 생각된다. 그러나 산란시기 이후에 모래주사들은 이 산란장에서 거의 출현하지 않는 특징을 보여 모래주사 개체들은 산란 후 댐호나 수심이 깊은 하류로 이동하는 것으로 추정된다.
