n-Alkanes (n-nonacosane and n-hentriacontane), phytosterols (campesterol and ${\beta}$-sitosterol) and phytosteryl glucosides (${\beta}$-sitosterol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside and campesterol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside) were isolated from the underground parts of Epimedium koreanum (Berberidaceae) and characterized by spectral data.

Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) of the pine sawyer (Monochamus saltuarius), Japanese pine sawyer (M. alternatus) and oak longicorn beetle (Moechotypa diphysis) were analyzed by GC, GC-MS and compared. Monochamus beetles are typical vectors of pine wilt disease but Moechotypa diphysis, which belongs to the same family, is not. They possess different CHCs in carbon number: 23-25 in M. saltuarius, 25-32 in M. alternatus, and 23-29 in M. diphysis. In comparison to inter-species, these three species of adult beetles have different numbers and chains of constituents of CHCs. In comparison between male and female in intra-species, the quantities of CHCs show the difference but constituents are not. Major constituent of M. saltuarius were analyzed as n-pentacosane > n-nonacosane > n-heptacosane; those of M. alternatus were n-nonacosene > n-pentacosane > n-nonacosane; and those of M. diphysis were n-heptacosane > 13-methylheptacosane > 3-methylheptacosane. From the body surface, most saturated carbohydrates of 3 species beetles are composed of n-alkane (40.2 - 65.7%) and followed by olefines > monomethylalkanes that one or two double bonds in M. saltuarius and M. alternatus. Otherwise, M. diphysis have the difference in order of monomethylalkanes > olefins.

Petal of Azalea(Rhododendron mucronulatum Turcz) was incubated with Gokja at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for seven days and the essential oil components of petal of Azalea before and after incubated were analyzed using a GC/MSD. Ten or more essential oil components including n-heneicosane n-tricosane n-tetreacosane n-pentacosane n-heptacosane n-nonacosane and n-hentriacontane were identified from the petal of Azal-ea before incubated while oxygen-containng compounds including (E)-heptenal 2-ethoxy-1 -hexanol n-hexadecanoic acid methyl ester 9, 12-octadecadienoic acid methyl ester 9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester, n-octadecanoic acid methyl ester n-eicosanoic acid methyl ester and 9-docosaenoic acid methyl ester as well as n-alkanes such as n-tricosane that n-pentacosane were identified from the petal of Azalea after incubated. These results suggest that n-alkanes in petal of Azalea might be degraded and some oxygen-containing compounds such as aldehyde, esters and /or acids might be produced when pet-al of Azalea is incubated with Gokja.

Aliphatic cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) of different developmental stages of the spot clothing wax cicada, Lycorma delicatula (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae) were analyzed using GC and GC-MS. The numbers of carbons in the major CHCs of each developmental stage 32, 33, 28, 38, 37 in the egg, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th instar nymphal stages, and adults, respectively. The cuticle of Lycorma delicatula contains mainly methyl-branched 9-methylheptacosane (15.11%) in the egg stage, and a high proportion of n-heptacosane in nymphal stages (15.75, 22.42, 25.04, and 23.11 % in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th instars, respectively). In contrast, male and female adults had high proportions of n-nonacosane (13.42 and 16.55%). The chemical constituents of CHCs were classified into five groups (n-alkanes, monomethylalkanes, dimethylalkanes, trimethylalkanes, olefins) and group profiles of each developmental stage were compared. Egg surface was composed mainly monomethylalkanes (45.39%), a saturated hydrocarbon. Nymph CHCs consisted primarily of n-alkanes (37.63 to 46.12%). There was a difference between adult male and female CHCs. However, both contained n-alkanes and monomethylalkanes. CHCs with trimethyl or double bonded structure were rare in all stages.

Besides chrysophanol and friedelin, mixtures of n-hydrocarbons [pentacosane (72.6%), heptacosane (14.6%), tetracosane (5.8%), nonacosane (4.1 %) and hexacosane (2.9%)], n-hydrocarbon alcohols [octacosanol (70.5%) and hexacosanol (29.5%)], l-monoacyl glycerols [acyl part; behenic acid (43.5%), lignoceric acid (32.4%), cerotic acid (9.3%), tricosanoic acid (8.9%), pentacosanoic acid (2.6%), octacosanoic acid (2.3%), heneicosanoic acid (1.0%)], wax esters [behenic acid (56.3%), lignoceric acid (23.0%), cerotic acid (19.8%), tricosanoic acid (4.6%), octacosanoic acid (4.0%), pentacosanoic acid (1.7%), triacontanoic acid (0.6%)/ octacosanol (33.7%), hexacosanol (21.0%), tetracosanol (15.6%), triacontanol (10.5%), docosanol (6.0%), tricosanol (6.0%), heptacosanol (4.2%), nonacosanol (3.0%)] and sterols [${\beta}-sitosterol$ (73.2%), stigmasterol (14.6%), campesterol (12.2%)] were isolated from the roots of Hemerocallis fulva. The acid : alcohol combinations of the major wax esters were $C_{48}$: 22 : 26, 24 : 24, $C_{46}$: 22 : 24, and $C_{44}$: 22 : 22. This is the first report of l-monoacyl glycerols and friedelin from this plant. All isolates were identified on the basis of spectral data and chemical reactions.
