  • The discipline that deals with the role of insects in various activities that affect human aesthetics is called cultural entomology. This study investigated the kinds of insects appearing in modern traditional three-verse Korean poem, Sijo from the perspective of cultural insects. The subject literature surveyed 6,604 works and examined insect words. Among them, there were 215 works that appeared insect words and there were 26 works containing insect words in the title. All of the insect words appeared 257 times and were distinguished by 30 kinds of insects. The most commonly used insect words appeared 57 times as a butterfly, 45 crickets, and 44 insects. Studies in the field of cultural entomology will be needed through various works of art.

  • 충남 서부에 위치한 보령 지역은 트라이아스기 후기로 알려진 육성 기원의 남포층군이 널리 분포하고 있다. 남포층군은 하부로부터 하조층, 아미산층, 조계리층, 백운사층 및 성주리층으로 구분된다. 남포층군에서 산출되는 화석의 대부분은 식물 화석이며, 기타 이매패 화석, 어류 화석, 곤충의 유충 화석, 패갑류(conchostracans) 등의 화석이 산출되고 있지만, 양적으로 극히 적다. 이들 화석 중에서 체계적으로 연구가 된 것은 식물 화석뿐이고, 나머지 화석들은 전문 연구가의 부재 등에 의해 극히 미미한 연구 수준에 머물러 있다. 이번의 연구를 통해서 아미산층에서 채집된 곤충화석은 모두 107점이고, 그중에서 유충 화석이 94점, 날개 화석이 14점이다. 이들의 분류학적 연구 결과, 아미산층의 곤충화석군은 소시목, 강도래목, 날도래목, 하루살이목, 잠자리목, 바퀴벌레목, 벌목, 매미목을 비롯한 8목 11종에 이르는 유시류의 곤충들로 구성된다. 이들은 현재까지 우리나라에서 발견된 곤충화석 중 시대적으로 가장 오래된 화석이다. 유충 화석은 모두 수서 곤충의 유충화석이다. 이들의 유충은 수중생활에 적응하여 지상생활을 하는 성충과 형태적으로 큰 차이가 있는 불완전변태류 또는 외시류이다. 날개 화석은 수서곤충의 성충의 날개이고 일부는 육상 생활을 하는 곤충의 날개가 포함되어 있다. 아미산층에서 나온 곤충화석에는 육상에서 생활하는 매미목과 바퀴목도 있는데 이들은 불완전변태류에 속한다. 그러나, 똑같은 육상생활자이면서도 벌목은 완전변태류 또는 내시류에 속하는 것도 있다. 따라서 아미산층에서 산출된 곤충화석군에는 불완전변태류와 완전변태류가 섞여 있는 특징을 보인다. 이들은 실제로 같은 시대에 비슷한 장소에서 함께 생활을 했던 생물군집이지만, 서로 살던 장소가 다른 집단들이 섞여 있다는 것은 육상생활자의 일부가 죽은 후 수류에 의해 퇴적분지로 유입되어 매몰된 혼합집단으로 볼 수 있다. 현생의 하루살이목, 강도래목 등은 대표적인 유수성 곤충이고, 잠자리, 노린재 등은 대표적인 정수성 곤충으로 알려져 있다. 이들이 지층에 밀집하여 산출되는 것으로 보아 살던 장소에서 많은 퇴적물의 유입에 따른 급격한 매몰에 의해 화석화된 것으로 판단된다. 동아시아의 중생대 초기에서 보고된 곤충 화석은 양적으로도 수적으로도 그리 많지 않다. 그중에서 일본의 Mine에서 보고된 화석군이 가장 대표적이며 바퀴류(Blattaria)와 딱정벌레(Coleoptera)의 화석이 가장 큰 비율을 차지하지만, 아미산층 곤충화석군과의 공통종은 한 종도 없다. 아미산층의 곤충화석군은 비록 다양성은 쥐라기의 곤충상에 비해 떨어지지만 조성적으로는 쥐라기의 곤충상에 매우 유사하다. 육상에 사는 곤충이 화석으로 보존되기 어렵다는 것을 감안하면 아미산층에서 산출된 곤충화석은 학술적으로 매우 귀중하고 큰 의미가 있다. 보령 지역의 곤충화석은 중생대의 쥐라기와 백악기를 거쳐 현재로 이어지는 곤충 진화사의 잃어버린 고리를 이어줄 수 있는 귀중한 자료로 평가된다.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the changes of insects diversity and host plants from 1998 to 2001 after the construction of an insect park in Suwon in Korea. After the construction in 1997 the insect species and populations have been increased yearly to date. A total of 343 species out of 138 families of 11 orders was surveyed at the park from April to November in 2001. The number of species increased from April to July and showed a peak in June. Coleoptera was a dominant order, and Dolichus halensis (Schaller) of Coleoptera, Artogeia rapae (Linne) of Lepidoptera, and Liorhyssus hyaalinus (Fabricius) of Hemiptera were dominant species.

  • Since insects play important roles in existence of plants and other animals in the natural environment, they are considered as necessary biological resources from the perspectives of those biodiversity conservation and national utilization strategy. For the conservation and utilization of insect species, an observational learning environment is needed for non-experts such as citizens and students to take interest in insects in the natural ecosystem. The insect identification is a main factor for the observational learning. A current time-consuming search method by insect classification is inefficient because it needs much time for the non-experts who lack insect knowledge to identify insect species. To solve this problem, we proposed an smart phone-based insect identification inference system that helps the non-experts identify insect species from observational characteristics in the natural environment. This system is based on the similarity between the observational information by an observer and the biological insect characteristics. For this system, we classified the observational characteristics of insects into 27 elements according to order, family, and species, and proposed similarity indexes to search similar insects. In addition, we developed an insect identification inference prototype system to show this study's viability and performed comparison experimentation between our system and a general insect classification search method. As the results, we showed that our system is more effective in identifying insect species and it can be more efficient in search time.

  • In the insect industry, as the scope of application of insects is expanded from pet insects and natural enemies to feed, edible and medicinal insects, the demand for quality control of insect raw materials is increasing, and interest in securing the safety of insect products is increasing. In the process of expanding the industrial scale, controlling the temperature and humidity and air quality in the insect breeding room and preventing the spread of pathogens and other pollutants are important success factors. It requires a controlled environment under the operating system. European commercial insect breeding facilities have attracted considerable investor interest, and insect companies are building large-scale production facilities, which became possible after the EU approved the use of insect protein as feedstock for fish farming in July 2017. Other fields, such as food and medicine, have also accelerated the application of cutting-edge technology. In the future, the global insect industry will purchase eggs or small larvae from suppliers and a system that focuses on the larval fattening, i.e., production raw material, until the insects mature, and a system that handles the entire production process from egg laying, harvesting, and initial pre-treatment of larvae., increasingly subdivided into large-scale production systems that cover all stages of insect larvae production and further processing steps such as milling, fat removal and protein or fat fractionation. In Korea, research and development of insect smart factory farms using artificial intelligence and ICT is accelerating, so insects can be used as carbon-free materials in secondary industries such as natural plastics or natural molding materials as well as existing feed and food. A Korean-style customized breeding system for shortening the breeding period or enhancing functionality is expected to be developed soon.

  • The study aimed to investigate the psychological effect of the emotional insect-assisted healing program on the stress experienced by 43 children in a community child center. Silkworm (Bombyx mori [Linnaeus]) was used in the healing programs, and the stress was measured using salivary alpha-amylase levels. Saliva samples and a survey on insect preference were collected before and after the healing programs, respectively. After the program, the satisfaction score for participation was evaluated. Results indicate that the emotional insect-assisted healing programs led to statistically significant lowering of salivary alpha-amylase levels and increased the preference for insects. The children's satisfaction in the healing program activities using silkworms was 4.23 points out of 5.

  • This study was conducted to investigate insect fauna in the four insect garden sites of Suwon, Yeongyang, Buyeo and Yecheon from 2005 to 2007. Seasonal population size of insects was largest from June to August in all the four sites. In the four sites, Coleopteran insects were dominant followed by Hemiptera and Orthoptera. Unique education/learning programs are successfully run at the insect gardens based on the three geographic types (i.e. urban, mountainous and rural). These activities will help preserve insect biodiversity in the area and visitors better understand life forms such as insects found in the areas.
