We had reported the infection rates of trematode larvae, Cercaria tapidis and C. harengulae in the gonad tissues of Tapes philippinarum and Solen strictus in the estuary of Kum river, the west coast in Korea in 1980~1982. At the same sites from January 1994 to January 1995, we investigated the variation of the infection rates of these trematode larvae in the two clams. The results are follows. The infection rate of C. tapidis parasitized in T. philippinarum increased in 2.4 times (14.0%) higher than that (5.7%) in 1981. Monthly maxium infection rate was 32.0% in October 1994. Comparing the rate (23.3%) in December 1981, the rate in 1994 showed a higher trend than that in 1981. The mean infection rate of C. harengulae in T. philippinarum showed 2.3% in 1994. Comparing that (5%) in 1980, it showed a decreased rate than that in 1980. And monthly maximum infection infection rate of this clam was 6.7% in May 1994, compared with the rate (19.0%) in March 1980. It appeared furthermore decreased rate in 1994. The mean infection rate of the year of C. harengulae in S. strictus was 6.9% in 1994, while it was 10.2% between 1981 and 1982. It showed a decreased trend in 1994. Monthly maximum infection rate was 23.4% in August 1981, while it was 13.3% in April 1994. It showed a decreased trend in 1994 also. In case of C. tapidis the more large sizes of shell length the more infection rates were higher as same in the investigation in 1980, while in C. harengulae the smaller sizes, the more infection rates showed a higher trend.

The present study was conducted to research some parastic trematodes species in marine bivalves which are widely distributed in the western sea in Korea. From April, 2001 to October, 2002, marsh calm (Corbicula japonica) were obtained from Kochang bay near the Sunun temple and razor calm (Sinonovaculla constricta) from Kaehwado. Short necked calm (Ruditapes philippnarum) were sampled from Ochungdo, Mardo and Kaeyado. Cercaria corbiculae was found in the gonad of C. japonica with a low infection rate of 0.83%. The cercaria and the sporocyst were sized $278{\times}98{\mu}$ and $890{\times}275{\mu}$, respectively. Some encysted larvae of Parvatrema duboisi sized $0.351{\times}0.182mm$ were firstly found in the mantle of S. constricta in Korea. Each S. constricta contained 1-9 cysts and the infection rate was 48.3%. Cercaria tapidis was found in the both gonad and mantle of R. philippinarum. The annual average infection rate in the R. philippinarum from Ochungdo was 7.7%. This rate was much higher than those from Solri near the Kum river estuary in 1981. The infection rate of C. tapidis in R. philippinarum was different in sizes. The maximum rate was 4.8% in size 3.6-4.0cm and the minimum rate 0.8% in size 4-5cm.

The pine needle gall midge (PNGM), Thecodiplosis japonensis Uchida et Inouye, is a serious pest in pine forests in Korea. Since the first report of PNGM infestation in Korea in 1929, the infestation area has been expanded gradually. In 1975 the distribution of PNGM and its parasitoids were surveyed throughout several infested areas in Korea. Annual survey has been made for the rates of gall formation by PNGM and parasitism by its parasitoids at the monitoring sites including newly infested area in 1975 since 1980. These data were used to examine the relationship between PNGM and its parasitoids for newly invaded areas. The gall forming rate of PNGM and the parasitism by the parasitoid were 34.8 and 1.9% in 1975, respectively, while the gall forming rate and the parasitism were 20.7 and 8.9% in 1985, respectively. The relationships of densities between PNGM and its parsitoid were weak in the early stage of dispersion, but the density of parasitoid was with an asymptotic increase along with PNGMs density increase during the observation period for 10 years.

지난해 우리나라 기생충 감염율이 1.5%인 것으로 집계되었다. 변화의 추이를 보면 회충등 토양매개성 기생충은 감소하는 반면 요충, 간흡충 등의 감염율은 크게 감소하지 않은 실정인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이 자료를 토대로 기생충 관리의 새롭고 구체적인 방향을 모색해 보기로 한다.

This study was carried out to investigate the distribution of egg parasitoids from green rice leafhopper, Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler, from the middle of August through the early September in southern rice cultural areas. The results were obtained as follow. 1. Four species of egg parasitoids, Gonatocerus sp. A and B, Paracentrobia andoi and Anagrus sp. are newly recorded from the eggs of green rice leafhopper. 2. Egg parasitism rates of Gonatocerus sp. were varied from $41.0\~73.9\%$ on an egg mass basis and from $29.7\~49.0\%$ on basis of egg. Percent parasitism rates by Paracentrobia andoi were $0\~9.7\%$ on an egg mass basis and from $2.1\~12.6\%$ on basis of egg. Gonatocerus sp. was dominant egg parasitoid in the parasitism rate than Paracentrobia andoi.

Anastatus orientalis Yang et Gibson(Hymenoptera : Eupelmidae) is the egg parasitoid of lantern-fly Lycorma delicatula. The natural parasitism showed that: (1)the highest parasitism rate of egg masses was 68.96% in Yantai Shandong; (2)the highest parasitism rate of eggs was 32.98% in Haidian Beijing; (3)the eggs of parasitoids hatched and emerged earliest in Yangling Shaanxi; emergence time of different populations in Yantai, Guangang Tianjin, Qinhuangdao Hebei and Haidian was similar; (4) the sex ratios were various among the populations ranging from 1.92 to 1.94; (5) parasitism rates of egg masses on Populus sp., Salix sp. and Toona sinensis were not significantly different, the highest parasitism rate of egg masses was 64.3% on T. sinensis, and the lowest rate was 27.4% on Ailanthus altissima; (6)parasitism rates of eggs on Populus sp., Salix sp., T. sinensis and A. altissima were not significantly different, about 30% averagely.

Parasitylenchus orthotomici sp. n. is described as a nematode parasite of Orthotomicus an¬gulatus in Korea. In a sample of 170 beetles randomly collected from Pinus densiflora S. et. Z, 51. 8% were parasitized by nematodes. The number of nematodes per bark beetle was ranged from 1 to 97. The parasitisms of F, generation were ranged from 43.2% to 52%. There was no positive tendency in nematode parasitism between sun-side and shade-side.

This study was conducted to investigate percentage of parasitism and control effect of Liriomyza trifolii by Hemiptarsenus zilahisebessi on tomato. Percentages of parasitism on L. trifolii larva by ectopatasitoids war e 26∼45% Among them the parasitism by H. zilahisebessi was highest as 47∼75% in tomato. The parasitoids preferred 1 st to 3rd instar of host larvae. In laboratory test, the parasitoids showed high parasitism on 3rd instar larvae of host by 89.8∼93.1% when the female parasitoids were introduced by the ratios of 1 : 10, 1 : 20, and 1 : 30. In field test, 3 or 5 female parasitoids were introduced per plant. In the case, the parasitism increased to 80% 4 weeks after introduction of the parasitoids. This increased parasitism was resulted from density reduction of the host larvae There were no significant differences in parasitism, density of alive host, and percentage of damaged leaf between inoculation density.

전반적 기생충 감염율은 감소되는 반면 다른 기생충 질환이 사회적으로 문제가 되고 있으며, 지역에 따라서는 다른 지역에 비해 높은 감염율을 나태 내는 특정 기생충 질환이 문제가 된다.
