For an efficient management and utilization of marine biodiversity information, we made an attempt to develop the Korea Marine Biodiversity Information System (KoMBIS), building a species name inventory of Korea marine organisms. The inventory includes 17 organism groups: phytoplankton, zooplankton, algae and halophyte, sponges, cnidarians, rotifers, nematodes, bryozoans, brachiopods, molluscs, echiurans, annelids, arthropods, echinoderms, urochordates and fish. The species names were collected from 37 different references and reviewed for validity by taxonomists, which resulted in 9,798 valid names in addition to 1,845 synonyms. The Korea marine species inventory is the first one of this kind, for previous Korean species name inventories were mostly composed of terrestrial and freshwater organisms. KoMBIS, the information system developed, contains not only the species name but also information on morphological and ecological characteristics such as distribution, DNA barcode, and references. This system is convenient for the inputting of new data and servicing users through the internet, so that management and utilization of the biodiversity information is more efficient. Linking the DNA barcode data with species information provides an objective measure for identification of a species, which accommodates the recommendation of Consortium for the Barcode of Life, and makes the Korea marine biodiversity information compatible with international databases. Considering the frequent exchange of marine organisms internationally via ballast water and such issues as climate change, this information system will be useful in many areas of marine biodiversity.

A rotifer starin has been isolated from tide pools located near Sogwipo, Cheju Island and the effects of environmental factors (water temperature and salinity) and clonal differences have been examined with regard to size variation and cyclomorphosis. Adult female rotifers varied from 141.61 to $173.97 \mutextrm{m}$ in their mean lorica length under different rearing conditions in the laboratory and also had pointed anterior spines . Thus, this strain was classified as Brachionus rotundiformes. Mean lorica length tended to be smaller as rearing temperature increased although there were some exceptions. Statistical analysis indicated that lorica length was largely influenced by both clonal differences and rearing temperatures although the former as a genetic factor affected lorica length a little more than the latter did ; overall effect of salinity on lorica length was not statistically signicicant; furthermore, cyclomorphosis was also largely influenced by both clonal differences and rearing temperatures, but clonal differences as a genetic factor affected rotifer cyclomorphosis much more than temperature did.

Chub mackerel, Scomber japonicus, larvae and juveniles were reared from hatching to 35 days after hatching (DAH), and the development of their digestive systems was histologically investigated. The larvae were initially fed on rotifers and Artemia nauplii starting around 19 DAH, and thereafter on Artemia nauplii, fish eggs, and a formulated feed mixture. The primitive digestive system differentiated at 3 DAH; the digestive tract was distinctively divided into the buccopharyngeal cavity, esophagus, stomach, air bladder, intestines, and rectum. The gastric gland and pyloric caeca first appeared at 5 and 7 DAH, respectively. The stomach was divided into cardiac, fundic, and pyloric regions in the preflexion phase. The number of gastric glands and pyloric caeca, as well as the volume of the gastric blind sac increased markedly, with development continuing into the juvenile stage. The precocious development of the digestive system during the larval period might be related to the early appearance of piscivory, which is able to support high growth potential. The organogenesis results obtained for this precocial species represent a useful tool to aid our understanding of the physiological requirements of larvae and juveniles to ensure optimal welfare and growth under aquaculture conditions, which will improve current rearing practices of this scombrid species.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the bacterial flora of healthy olive flounder larvae (Paralichthys olivaceus) and live feeds (Rotifer spp. and Artemia spp.). The total bacteria counts were $9.2{\times}10^7$ and $1.2{\times}10^{10}cfu/g$ and Vibrio sp.(82.8%) was dominant in rotifers. The total bacteria counts were $3.8{\times}10^6$ and $9.2{\times}10^6cfu/g$ and Vibrio sp.(73.3%) was dominant in artemia. In olive flounder larvae, the total bacteria counts were $1.4{\times}10^6{\sim}8.3{\times}10^7cfu/g$ and V. harveyi (38.5%) was dominant. It might be potential marker of disease outbreak in olive flounder larvae.

Although rotifers have been considered the best feeding option for several species of fishes in aquaculture, they are sometimes larger than appropriate for the early larval stage of some marine fishes. Thus, we aimed to determine whether size-based selection of the parents could affect the average body size of their progeny in two clonal populations of the rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis. From each of the clones, 20 individuals were bi-directionally selected toward both smaller and larger sizes and each individual-based selection was conducted for 10 consecutive generations. The results showed that although there were sometimes differences in mean body size between parents and their progeny, no directional trend was observed in all selected lines of both clones. We demonstrated that artificial selection in a rotifer stock cannot lead to an expected size range although they appear to exhibit a large degree of body size polymorphism.

본 연구는 먹이종류에 따라 고밀도로 배양한 rotifer를 넙치 자어에게 공급하였을 때 이들의 먹이효율을 조사하였다. Rotifer 고밀도 배양의 실험구 먹이는 18 시간 동안 담수산 Chlorella를 공급한 후 6시간 유지효모 및 $Marine\;{\alpha}$를 공급한 것과 24시간 동안 담수산 농축 Chlorella 및 해수산 농축 Chlorella를 공급한 것으로 하였다. 배양수조는 $2l$를 이용하였고 수온 $28{\circ}C$를 유지하였다. $Marine {\alpha}$와 해수산 농축 Chlorella를 공급한 실험구의 n-3 HUFA 함량이 유지효모와 담수산 농축 Chlorella를 공급한 실험구보다 높게 나타났다. 따라서 $Marine\;{\alpha}$와 해수산 농축 Chlorella를 공급한 실험구가 유지효모와 담수산 농축 Chlorella를 공급한 실험구보다 넙치 자어의 성장과 생존률이 높게 나타났다. 또한 $Marine\;{\alpha}$로 배양된 rotifer를 섭취한 넙치 자어 자체의 지방산 중 n-3 HUFA비율이 다른 먹이보다 높게 나타났지만 안정적 배양은 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 본 실험을 통해서 rotifer 고밀도 배양시 안정적인 rotifer 성장과 rotifer의 질적 개선을 위해서는 24시간 해수산 농축 Chlorella를 공급하는 것이 효율적이며 이들을 넙치 자어에게 공급하였을 때 가장 적절한 먹이일 것으로 판단된다.

Amphidinium species are amongst the most abundant benthic dinoflagellates in marine intertidal sandy ecosystems. Some of them produce a variety of bioactive compounds that have both harmful effects and pharmaceutical potential. In this study, Amphidinium cells were isolated from intertidal sand collected from the East China Sea. The two strains established were subjected to detailed examination by light, and scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The vegetative cells had a minute, irregular, and triangular-shaped epicone deflected to the left, thus fitting the description of Amphidinium sensu stricto. These strains are distinguished from other Amphidinium species by combination characteristics: (1) longitudinal flagellum inserted in the lower third of the cell; (2) icicle-shaped scales, 276 ± 17 nm in length, on the cell body surface; (3) asymmetrical hypocone with the left side longer than the right; and (4) presence of immotile cells. Therefore, they are described here as Amphidinium stirisquamtum sp. nov. The molecular tree inferred from small subunit rRNA, large subunit rRNA, and internal transcribed spacer-5.8S sequences revealed that A. stirisquamtum is grouped together with the type species of Amphidinium, A. operculatum, in a fully supported clade, but is distantly related to other Amphidinium species bearing body scale. Live A.stirisquamtum cells greatly affected the survival of rotifers and brine shrimp, their primary grazers, making them more susceptible to predation by the higher tropic level consumers in the food web. This will increase the risk of introducing toxicity, and consequently, the bioaccumulation of toxins through marine food webs.

The productivity of ultra-small rotifer, Synchaeta kitina was investigated at the exchange rate of culture water (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50%) and initial inoculation densities (250, 600 and 900 inds. per mL) in semi-continuous culture. Also, the possibility of mass culture was investigated in a 100 L culture tank. Tetraselmis suecica was used as the feed for S. kitina in all experiments. The production of S. kitina increased with an increase in exchange rate of culture water. The highest production ($82.0{\times}10^5$ inds.) was achieved at 40% exchange rate of culture water. The production of S. kitina increased with an increase of initial inoculation density during the first week and the highest total production ($17.4{\times}10^6$ inds.) was achieved at 900 inds. per mL of initial inoculation density. However, on the second week, all treatments were not significantly different in total production (P>0.05). During the two weeks, total production of S. kitina at 900 inds. per mL of initial inoculation density was higher than at 600 inds. of initial inoculation density, but there was no significant difference (P>0.05). In the 100 L culture tank, density of S. kitina was kept from 516 to 890 inds. per mL and S. kitina was daily harvested $15.5{\times}10^6$ to $26.7{\times}10^6$ during the experimental period. The production cost for 100 million rotifers in semi-continuous culture was 63,656 won. The results from this study indicate that the optimal exchange rate of culture water and initial inoculation density for the semi-continuous culture of ultra-small rotifer, S. kitina are 40% and 600 inds. per mL, respectively.
