A taxonomic study of the Palearctic species of the genus Brachyserphus is presented. Two species are newly described as B. acuticaudatus sp. n. and B. semipunctatus sp. n. from South Korea and the Russian Far East. B. striatopropodeatus (Kolyada 1997 syn. n.) is synonymized under B. lucens (Provancher 1883) and a key to the Palearctic species is provided.

Two species belonging to the genus Gregarinidra Barroso, 1949 (Bryozoa: Gymnolaemata: Flustridae) were first found in this study from Korean waters. Gregarinidra furcula n. sp. is new to science, and G. incrustans (Silén, 1941) is newly added to the Korean fauna. Species belonging to this genus are primarily distinguished by two characteristics: interzooidal avicularia and marginal spines. The pitchforked spines clearly distinguish G. furcula n. sp. from the other Gregarinidra species, and G. incrustans shows the difference by having blunt spines and short-triangular avicularia. Gregarinidra incrustans was known to be distributed only in Japan until this species was reported from the South Sea, Korea, in the present study. This study provides descriptions of two species with detailed illustrations by scanning electron microscopy, distributional data, and a taxonomic key to the Korean Gregarinidra species. With the addition of two species reported herein, four Korean Gregarinidra are recorded: G. corbula Seo, 1996, G. furcula new species, G. incrustans(Silén, 1941), and G. serrata (MacGillivray, 1869). Finally, Gregarinidra totals 10 species worldwide.

Selaginella austrotibetica, a new spikemoss species from China, is described. The species is epipetric and was found on a moss-covered rocky cliff by a riverbank. Morphologically, it is unlike any anisosporophyllous species in the genus Selaginella. However, it resembles species of the S. sanguinolenta group, especially similar to S. sajanensis in gross morphology, except for the characters of strobilus. The molecular phylogenetic analysis clearly showed that S. austrotibetica was nested within the anisosporophyllous species clade, forming a sister relationship with the clade of S. vaginata and S. xipholepis, and distinct from the S. sanguinolenta group, including S. sajanensis. Although S. austrotibetica is sister to the clade of S. vaginata and S. xipholepis, the species can be clearly distinguished by its sparse leaves on branches, dorsal leaves that are broad-ovate, base obtuse to rounded, margin denticulate or very shortly sparsely ciliolate, and leaves that are slightly thick and shiny. Therefore, we described Selaginella austrotibetica as a new species and discuss its phylogenetic relationships within the genus Selaginella.

A new species, Monoblastus forsythia sp. nov. is described from South Korea. All specimens of this new species were collected on Forsythia koreana (Nakai). A taxonomic study of South Korean Monoblastus was initiated by Uchida in 1930, and until now four species have been recorded from South Korea. The genus Monoblastus is a Holarctic genus with 31 described species, 14 species are Nearctic, seven are Western Palaearctic region, and nine species occur in Eastern Palaearctic region. In the study, I provide description and photos of both sexes of this new species. Also, modified key to species of the South Korean Monoblastus is provided.

The subgenus Abstrulia Casey belonging to the genus Tetratoma Fabricius of the family Tetratomidae is distributed ten species over the Holarctic region, including eight Palaearctic species. In East Asia, four species from Russian Far East and two species from Japan have been recorded, respectively. In the Korean Peninsula, two species, T. (A.) ainu (Nakane) and T. (A.) pictipennis Reitter, were reported up to date, and latter species is newly recorded in South Korea in this paper. A redescription, habitus photograph, and illustrations of diagnostic characters of the species are provided, with a key to species of the subgenus Abstrulia.

Acervus (Pyronemataceae, Pezizales) is a saprobic genus in Pezizomycetes, characterized by colored apothecia, subcylindrical to cylindrical asci and guttulate ascospores. We collected four Acervus samples from China and Thailand. Descriptions and illustrations are introduced for all fresh samples. One new record of A. globulosus from Thailand, one new species, A. rufus, two known species, A. epispartius and A. stipitatus from China are reported. Phylogenetic analysis based on five genes, the large subunit rRNA (LSU), the translation elongation factor-1 alpha (tef1-α), the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (rpb2), the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (rpb1), and the small subunit rRNA (SSU), revealed the distinct position of the new species. The new species is set apart by its red apothecia. A key to Acervus species is also given.
