The gudgeon, Microphysogobio tungtingensis uchidai, originally described by Banarescu and Nalbant in 1973 is reduced to a junior synonym of M. yaluensis based on the 5 type specimens in the USNM. Confusion on the taxonomic position of Microphysogovbio t. uchidai seems to have resulted from the inadequate description of the papillae of the upper lip and the reference to the small specimens.

Korean bitterling Acanthorhodeus gracilis Regan, 1908 is very similar to Acheilognathus chankaensis (Dybowski, 1872) having 12~14 dorsal fin rays, 10~11 anal fin rays and 35~36 lateral line scales. By analyzing these specimens and original descriptions, diagnostic characteristics of the genus Acanthorhodeus were included in the genus Acheilognathus and Acanthorhodeus gracilis was defined as a junior synonym of Acheilognathus chankaensis. The provisional keys are provided for identifying the nine species of Acheilognathus from Korea.

Five species of Helcystogramma are reviewed ; four are new combinations with Heleystogramma, and H. hassenzanensis is new to science. A key to species and illustrations of the adults , labial palpus, and male and female genitalia are provided. Anathyrsotis Meyrick is proposed to be a junior synonym of Helcystogramma, and Anathysotis ceriochranta Meyrick is synonymized with H. trijunctum (Meyrick). Helcystogramma macroscopum (Meyrick) is placed as a junior synonym of h. triannulella (Herrich-Schffer).

To verify the validity of Hemiculter eigenmanni (Jordan and Metz, 1913), we conducted morphological analysis on two syntypes of Hemiculter leucisculus (Basilewsky, 1855) and holotype of H. eigenmanni. Although some morphological differences were recognized between two nominal type specimens, it is concluded intraspecific or geographic variation through comparison with many specimens collected from Korea. Previously suggested synonymy between H. leucisculus and H. eigenmanni was reconfirmed, therefore the latter becomes a junior synonym of the former.

Genus Origo Omelko is synonymied as a junior synonym of Parastenolechia Kanazawa and the subspecies umbrosa Omelko as a junior synonym of argobathra Megrick. Laris superva Omelko and Telphusa clausterifera Meyrick are removed to the genus Parastenolechia. Among the 5 species redescribed in this article, 4 species are reported for the time from Korea.

Herein, 24 species of the carabid beetles are reported from South Korea. Of these,5 species, Aephnidius adelioides(Mac Leay, 1825), Badisrer(Baudia) nakayamai Morita, 1992, Bembidion(Trichoplataphus) eurygonum(Bates, 1883), Cillenus (Novicillenus) aestuarii ($U\'{e}no$ & Habu, 1955), Cillenus(Desarmarocillenus) yokohamae(Bates, 1883), are listed for the first time from the Korean Peninsula. A new junior subjective synonym is established: Oodes integer Semenov, 1889=Oodes helopioides tokyoensis Habu, 1956. Syn. Nov.

Scolecenchelys borealis was first added to the Korean fish fauna based on one leptocephalus specimen (total length (TL) 59.2 mm) collected from Dokdo, in the East Sea. Recently, however, Scolecenchelys borealis has been treated as a junior synonym of Scolecenchelys aoki, necessitating review of the scientific name S. borealis. This study describes the morphological characteristics of S. aoki based on an adult specimen (TL 230.0 mm) collected from the sea south of Korea and compares its mitochondrial DNA 12S rRNA sequence with that of the S. borealis leptocephalus. The adult S. aoki is characterized by several morphological features: vertebral formula 59-55-135; preanal lateral pores 55; infraorbital pores two; teeth on upper jaw visible externally when the mouth is closed; the dorsal fin originates just behind the anus; both jaws and vomerine teeth are conical, arranged in two rows. An analysis of an 886-base paire sequence of the 12S rRNA showed that adult S. aoki was concordant with the S. borealis leptocephalus (sensu Ji et al., 2012), indicating that both are the same species.
