Asplenium yoshinagae (Aspleniaceae), previously known only from Japan, southwest China to Himalaya, was found in Gageo-do, Heuksan-myeon, Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do. This species is similar to A. trichomonas, A. tripteropus, A. boreale, A. normale and A. oligophlebium by having gemmae and auricle of pinna, and distinguished from the latters by distinct stipe length, stalk of pinna, acute apex of pinna, length of indusium and shape of sorus. The Local name, Ga-geo-kko-ri-go-sa-ri, was newly given considering the locality. To reveal the interspecific relationships within the genus Asplenium in Korea, cladistic analysis was performed for 22 taxa of Asplenium as ingroup and 2 taxa of Diplazium as outgroup from Korea based on 20 morphological characters. As the results, the genus Asplenium seperated strongly from outgroup, and divided into 4 clades. Asplenium yoshinagae belong to the third clade. A. hondoense N. Murtakami & S. I. Hatanaka, which contained in the second clade, had treated as Hymenasplenium, but this results supported that this taxon may be contained in Asplenium, and also, Asplenium ruprechtii, not in Comptosorus. The morphological characters and illustrations of the species are provided together with photographs of habitat.

Vascular plants of Island Gageo in Jellonamdo were investigated 10 times from August, 2005 to August, 2011. In the result of survey, the flora of this island consists of 341 taxa totally; 93 families, 246 genera, 289 species, 7 subspecies, 36 varieties and 9 forms. Yellow-fruit bearing plants of $Neolitsea$ $sericea$ which were found in this island are newly named as $Neolitsea$ $sericea$ (Bl.) Koidz. for. $koreana$ M. Kim. There were 8 Korean endemic plants such as $Hosta$ $yingeri$, $Impatiens$ $furcillata$, $Saussurea$ $pseudo-gracilis$, etc. Also 3 Korean endangered species which is designating by Ministry of Environment such as $Osmanthus$ $insularis$ and $Cyrtosia$ $septentrionalis$ and 9 rare and remarkable species such as $Viburnum$ $japonicum$, $Asplenium$ $yoshinagae$, $Broussonetia$ $kazinoki$ for. $koreana$, etc. were found in this island. Furthermore, 11 taxa of naturalized plants (3.2%) were also observed in this island.
