Abstract
Rotifers inhabiting Oshipcheon (Samcheog-city), one of the natal streams of chum salmon in the east coast, were studied taxonomically. As a result, 19 species/subspecies were identified, and of which five rotifers are newly recorded from Korea: Cephalodella forficula, Dicranophorus forcipatus, Notommata glyphura, Bryceella tenella, and Habrotrocha collaris. Among these Korean new records, Habrotrocha collaris is also new to Asia.
