Abstract

The specimens of the recent conchostracans belonging to order Spinicaudata collected from freshwater habitats at 13 localities in South Korea during the period from May 1981 to May 1992 were examined. As a result of the present study, two species were identified: Caenestherielru gifuensis (Ishikawa, 1895), and Eurimnodio braueriona Ishikawa, 1895. The two species were described and figured in this paper. This is the first report of the recent conchostracan fauna from Korea.
