A new genus, Neochronistis which is closely related to Parachronistis Meyrick and a new species of the latter including two previousely known species are described with illustrations of external characters and male or female genitalia. Also a species of the latter, Parachronistis maritima Omelko is reported for the first time from Korea. Newly described species are Parachronistis geniculella sp. nov. and Neochronistis hodgesi sp. nov.

A study describing unrecorded and taxonomically undescribed indigenous species is in progress since 2006. Samples were collected from many sites in coastal waters and offshore of Korea as well as from Jeju Island. Since 2008, we have found ten unrecorded species of four genera belonging to family Dinophysaceae, Gonyaulacaceae, Gymnodiniaceae, and Heterocapsaceae. The species are as follows, Dinophysis elongata (2016 winter), D. nasuta (2016 winter), Gonyaulax alaskensis (2016 winter), G. diegensis (2017), G. monospina (2008), Amphidinium flagellans(2017), Heterocapsa circularisquama (2017), H. horiguchii (2017), H. lanceolata (2017), and H. pygmaea (2017) (note; The numbers in the parenthesis refer to the year in which the species was reported as unrecorded indigenous species by National Institute of Biological Resources, NIBR hereafter). Among them, seven species were described as newly recorded species in Korean waters, and three have been re-described in this study.

Four species of the free-living nematodes were collected from marine sediments in the sublittoral zone in the East Sea, Korea and were identified, described, and illustrated. Paranticoma tricerviseta Zhang, 2005, originally described from the Bohai Sea, China, is recorded for the first time in the East Sea, Korea; only in body length and thickness (1902-2282 ㎛ compared to 2472-3300 ㎛, 50-62 ㎛ compared to 57-82 ㎛, respectively). Specimens of Parodontophora marina Zhang, 1991, from East Sea, Korea largely agrees with the original description of Zhang (1991) of nematodes from the Bohai Sea, except for differences in body length and thickness (1190-1345 ㎛ compared to 1235-1408 ㎛, 40-44 ㎛ compared to 42-72 ㎛). Terschellingia longicaudata de Man, 1907 is reported for the first time in Korea, but was previously considered a cosmopolitan species of nematodes with a widespread distribution from the North Sea, Belgium to the Exclusive Economic Zone of New Zealand; it differs from the original description in body thickness(30-38 ㎛ vs. 40-62 ㎛). Vasostoma brevispicula Huang & Wu, 2011, originally described from the subtidal muddy sediment in the Yellow Sea, China, is newly reported in Korea; apart from a few minor morphological differences, body length and thickness (2009-2425 ㎛ vs. 2119-2906 ㎛, 41-48 ㎛ vs. 37-58 ㎛). The present study on unrecorded species improves our understanding of nematode species diversity in Korean waters.

Some asteroid specimens were collected at a depth of 150 m near Moseulpo in Jeju Island, Korea using fishing nets on October 2014. The specimens were identified as Henricia pacifica Hayashi, 1940 belonging to the family Echinasteridae of order Spinulosida. In the Korean fauna, seven species of genus Henricia were reported of which two species, H. nipponica and H. ohshimai, were distributed in Jeju Island. The morphological characteristics of this species were re-described with illustrations.

A new species, Scaeosopha sinevi sp. nov., is described from Korea. This genus is reported for the first time from the Palaearctic Region. The genus Scaeothyris Diakonoff, 1968 is newly synonymized with Scaeosopha Meyrick, 1914.

Bulged-type bends with low bending loss are newly proposed, and the FD-BPM is made use of for designing optimum structure. How to evaluate bending loss of conventional bends and how to improve the bending structure based on the phase compensation concept are described in genral. Besides simulation results for the bulged-type bends, results for the coupled-type bends and the chamfered-type bends show the most superior performance in terms of not only the bending loss but also the design tolerance.

A newly recorded species of gammaridean amphipod, Synopia (Telsosynopia) trifidilla Hughes and Lowry, 2006 belonging to the family Synopiidae Dana, 1853 was collected from the southern Korean coasts. Synopia (Telsosynopia) trifidilla Hughes and Lowry is characterized by the entire telson with a trifid apical margin. The species is described and fully illustrated in the present study. This is the first record of the family Synopiidae from Korea.

Four species of the families Gnaphosidae and Clubionidae are reported. Cladothela unmunensis n. sp. is described from Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea. Drassodes longispinus Marusik and Logunov, 1995, Gnaphosa inconspecta Simon, 1878 and Clubiona tongdaoensis Zhang, Yin, Bao and Kim, 1997 are newly recorded to the Korean spider fauna.

Asteroid specimens were collected from Shinnam, Gangwondo in the East Sea of Korea with fishing nets on 12 September 2014. The specimens were identified as Henricia reticulata Hayashi, 1940, belonging to family Echinasteridea of order Spinulosida. This species can be distinguished by a larger disc and broader arms compared to those other Henricia species. The morphological characteristics of this species are re-described with illustrations. By previous work of this genus, six species have been reported in the Korean fauna.

A new species of the genus Robertus Pickard-Cambridge, Robertus subtilis n. sp. is described from Mt. Odae in Gangwon Province, Korea. Theridion serpatusum Guan and Zhu, 1993 and Lathys annulata ${B\ddot{o}senberg}$ and Strand, 1906 are reported for the first time in Korea. Habitus photos and illustrations of these three species are provided.
