Phytophagous insects were surveyed from field populations of Compositae weeds in the order Campanulales. Forty five insect species including unidentified ones of 43 genera in 5 orders and 17 families were recorded from 16 species in 12 genera of Compositae weeds. The hemipterans and coleopterans were the most abundant insects representing 13 and 13 species, repectively. Aphids and leaf beetles were important phytophagous insects on Compositae weeds. The potential biological control insects were Uromelan gobonis and Aethes cnicana on Cirsium japonicum var. ussuriensis and Cryptosiphum artemisiae on Artemisia lavandulaefolia. The leaf beetles, Chrysolina aurichalcea, Longitarsus succineus, Basilepta fulvipes, and Hamushia konishii were often collected from A. lavandulaefolia. Aphids and leaf beetles showed host specificities. The roles of hemipterans collected from the flowers of A. lavandulaefolia and Erigeron canadensis were questionable.

Imago's flight activities of Protaetia brevitarsis were from mid June to early September, and those of Allomyrina dichotoma were from mid June to late August. These activities were mainly influenced by amount and duration of rain. They were more active when there was small amount and short period of rain in a year. Distribution depth of the 3$^{rd}$ larvae of P. brevitarsis were not affected to the temperature. But A. dichotoma were sensitively react to the temperature, almost larvae were near the surface when high temperature. The distribution of P. brevitarsis was not affected by humidity, but most of A. dichotoma were near the surface when high humidity. Larvae of P. brevitarsis usually ate their dead individuals. When we supplied as food the pork, chicken, fresh mackerel, bread, apple, and pear. They took all of these food but larvae of A. dichotoma took only bread. Two species were lived in similar environment but those feeding habit was very different.

This study deals with the structure of Carabid beetle community surveyed in different stands. Species richness and abundance of Carabid beetles were 1,162 individuals, 23 species, 10 genera in the Pinus densiflora stand, 418 individuals, 23 species, 11 genera in the Pinus koraiensis stand, 782 individuals, 25 species, 11 genera in the Larix leptolepis stand, 1,383 individuals 25 species, 12 genera in the Quercus variabilis stand. Dominant species were Synuchus cycloderus(19.8%), Synuchus nitidus(16.6%), Pterostichus pertirax(16.2%) in the Pinus densiflora stand. Pterostichus sp.1(27.9%), Synuchus nitidus(24.4%), Synuchus cycloderus(10.2%) in the Pinus koraiensis stand, Synuchus sp.1(40.0%), Synuchus nitidus(9.3), Pterostichus sp.1(7.4%) in the Larix leptoepis stand. Pterostichus sp.2(17.4%), Synuchus cycloderus(14.4%). Pterostichus pertirax(14.1%) in the Quercus variabili stand. Shannon species diversity index(H') in the Pinus densiflora, Pinus koraiensis, Larix leptolepis and Quercus variabilis stand were 2.11, 2.25, 2.23 and 2.32 respectively and Evenness index(J') were 0.64, 0.72, 0.69 and 0.72, respectively. Community similarity index showed the lowest value (0.66) between Quercus variabilis stand and Pinus koraiensis stand and the highest value (0.83) between Pinus densiflora stand and Larix leptolepis stand.

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.

A systematic study of the aleocharine tribe Falagriini in Korea is presented. Three species are recognized, all of which are recorded for the first time in Korea [Falagria sulcata (Paykull), Myrmecopora (Lamproxenusa) rufescens (Sharp), and Myrmecocephalus sapida (Sharp)］. A key is provided for separation of the known species of the Falagriini and photo-graphs of habitus are presented.
