초록

During a field survey of marine ciliate diversity in South Korea, four ciliate species were newly recorded as follows: Falcicyclidium citriforme, Homalogastra setosa, Euplotes orientalis, and Euplotes shini. The identification of these species was based on morphological examination through observations of both living cells and silver-impregnated specimens. A brief description, remarks, and photomicrographs are provided for each species.
