1983년 7월부터 1995년 10월까지 국내에서 채집된 망둑어아목 어류 4과 28속 51종을 대상으로 몸의 부위에 따른 비늘의 종류와 미병부 측면 비늘의 형태를 조사 비교하였다. Luciogobius grandis, L. guttatus 및 Leucopsarion petersi를 제외한 48종은 비늘을 가지고 있었으며, 비늘은 즐린과 원린의 2종류로 구분되었다. 특징적인 것은 동일 개체 내에서도 어체의 각 부위에 따라 종류, 형태, 크기, 초점의 위치, 구와 융기선수 및 소극수 등이 다르게 나타나지만 속과 종 수준에서 비교적 안정된 특징을 보여주었으며, 비늘의 유무와 그 종류에 따라 망둑어아목 어류는 5개의 group으로 분류되었다. 미병부 비늘의 형태는 5각형, 6각형, 원형 및 타원형으로 구분되었다. 또한 Odontobutis obscura interrupta, O. platycephala 및 Hypseleotris swinhoni는 2∼3열의 소극을 가지고 있고, Eutaeniichtys gilli와 Parioglossus dotui는 비늘의 초점이 중앙에 위치하고 있어 다른 망둑어아목 어류와 차이를 나타내었다.

Smithistruma japonica(lto) unrecorded species of Dacetini tribe in Korea was found in Is. Kekumdo, Chonnam Province and named Saw teeth scale ant. The form-characteristics difference between Smithistruma japonica(Ito) and Strumigenys lewisi Cameron was discribed with the result of observation by the scanning electron microscope(SEM). Total species of Dacetini tribe in Korean contained two species in two genus.

Body scales directly exposed to external environments can be an important factor to understand various characteristics of a species such as habitat features, life history and basic ecology. In this study, we compared size and morphology of dorsal, outermost dorsal, keeled dorsal and ventral scales of total nine snake species in Korea; Oocatochus rufodorsatus, Elaphe dione, Rhabdophis tigrinus, Amphiesma vibakari, Dinodon rufozonatum, Hierophis spinalis in the Colubridae and Gloydius ussuriensis, G. brevicaudus, G. saxatilis in the Viperidae. The morphological characteristics of the scales seem to well reflect foraging modes and moving activity of both families. Uniquely D. rufozonatum had a diamond shape dorsal scale and had the greatest and smallest value of the ratio of width/length of dorsal and ventral scales, respectively. O. rufodorsatus, D. rufozonatum and H. spinalis did not have keeled dorsal scales and E. dione had keel on the few of dorsal scales. In addition, morphological characteristics of scales of three viper species were closely consistent with previously known phylogenetic relationships.

In order to effectively utilize marine processing by-product such as fish scale, chemical compositions for the scale were analyzed. The selected fishes were gray mullet, Mugil cephalus, living in the sea and carp, Cyprinus carpio in the fresh water, having a lot of scales among the fishes living in seawater and fresh water. And we also investigated the difference in the chemical compositions between gray mullet and carp, depending on both living circumstances. The major components of the scales were found to be crude ash and crude protein which were each about 49% for gray mullet and which were about 20% and 79% for carp, respectively, on the basis of dried scales. The proteins extracted from both scales proved to be collagen through amino acid compositions and SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic patterm. Also this scale collagen was assumed to by Type I collagen because the migration rate of $\alpha$1 and $\alpha$2 subunit of the collagen were almost the same those as calf skin Type I collagen. Most of proteins from gray mullet was collagen, however, the collagen content in proteins from carp was estimated to be only about 53%, on the basis of the ratio of hydroxyproline to protein. The crude ashes of both scales identified to be hydroxyapatite through element compositions and X-ray diffraction analysis. In conclusion, both fishes in different living circumstances were almost similar to in the chemical compositions but chemical contents for crude ash and crude protein.

Morphological characters of the scales of Engraulidae fishes, Engraulis japonica and Thrissa kammalensis, are described with illustrative figures. The scales are primitive cycloid and quadrangular or pentagonal without concentric foci. In Engraulis japonica arrangements of the grooves are irregular, and tile grooves converge from the outer margin to the central part of the scale. In Thrissa kammalensis the arrangements of the grooves are transverse in the major part of the scale except the apical part. The ridge of the apical part form a network arrangement, and parallel with the grooves. In the central part of the scales of the both species there are several fingerprint-like structures.

Some scale worms collected in Korean coastal waters from 1981 to 1984 were identified with 9 species belonging to subfamily Lepidonotinae. Among them, 4 species (Lepidonotus tenuisetosu, Halosydnopsis pilose, Perolepis stylolepis and Lepidasthenia maculata) are new to Korea. Therefore, all of the lepidonotoid species in Korea are 12 species representing 7 genera. A key to the Korean species of lepidonotoid Polynoidae is provided.

A polynoid polychaete, Iphione muricata (Savigny, 1818), is newly recorded in Korean fauna. Genus Iphione was found for the first time in Korean waters. The specimen was collected in the Phyllospadix japonica bed by SCUBA diving. The species is described with figures and the key to subfamily was revised, Including this Iphione muricata, a total of 24 species representing 14 genera are known to the Korean polynoid polychaetes.

일본, 중국, 대만 및 베트남에 분포하는 것으로 알려진 부처손과의 각시비늘이끼 (Selaginella heterostachys Baker)가 강원도 춘천시 남산면 강촌리 저지대에서 발견되었다. 이 종은 선비늘이끼와 유사하나 측면의 소엽이 난상이며 기부가 심장저이고, 중앙부의 소엽은 길며 정단부가 구부러진 점으로 구별된다. 국명은 선비늘이끼보다 중앙부의 소엽이 구부러져 각시의 치마와 비슷하여 각시비늘이끼라고 신칭하였다. 각시비늘이끼의 형태적 특징을 기재하였고, 도해와 생태 사진을 첨부하였다.
