Two new and one unrecorded hybrids of the genus Asplenium were newly found in Korea. They were proved to be hybrid based on intermediate morphology between putative parents. The first hybrid is $A.{\times}uiryeongse$ C.S. Lee & K. Lee (Aspleniaceae), nom. nov. (vernacular name: geo-mi-sa-cheol-go-sa-ri). This new hydrid is a cross between the Asian walking fern, A. ruprechtii and A. pekinens in Uiryeong-gil, Mt. Bukansan, Seoul, Korea. The other new one occurs in Mt. Seongsan in Yeoncheon-gun, Gyeonggi-do, Korea, $A.{\times}montanus$ C.S. Lee & K. Lee, nom. nov. (vernacular name: san-kko-ri-go-sa-ri) which might have experienced multiple hybridization events between A. ruprechtii ${\times}$ A. trichomanes and A. incisum following the hybrid between A. ruprechtii and A. trichomanes. In addition, one unrecorded hybrid, $A.{\times}kitazawae$ Kurata & Hutoh (vernacular name: geo-mi-dol-dam-go-sa-ri), reported first from Japan, is found in natural habitats in Do-dong, Daegu-si, and is a hybrid, between the Asian walking fern and A. sarelli. These hybrid taxa grow in sympatric regions with both putative parental species. The diagnostic characters for each taxon and evidence for their hybridization have been suggested. Descriptions, illustrations, and photographs of these hybrid taxa in their habitats are provided from Korea.

Three unrecorded fern species from the flora of Korea, Nephrolepis cordifolia, Athyrium epirhachis, and Asplenium castaneo-viride, are reported here. Nephrolepis cordifolia, recognized as introduced species and cultivation in Korea until now, is found in the wild at the entrance of small cave in Jeju island. Athyrium epirhachis is found under the Quercus acuta forest at about 400 - 500 m alt. in Jeju island. This species is similar to A. otophorum but different from the latter by having once pinnately divided leaf blade and the decurrent base of ultimate segment. Asplenium castaneo-viride is hybrid between A. ruprechtii and A. incisum and is distinguished from parental species by presence of proliferation, shape of leaf blade, pattern of venation, and leaf texture.

To verify hybridity of Asplenium castaneo-viride, external morphology, spore morphology, anatomy and chromosomes of the species and of the two presumed parental species, A. incisum and A. ruprechtii, were examined. A. castaneo-viride usually had 1-pinnately divided frond. However, some individuals had almost simple fronds with pinnatisect basal parts similar to A. ruprechtii, while others had fronds similar to A. incisum in having oblanceolate blades and basal pinnae with triangular, 2-3 lobed apices. On the surface of the spores, sculpturing consisted of folds that were usually prominent; forming long wings, and irregular or incomplete reticulation. However, reticulation patterns varied among species. A. castaneo-viride showed a wide range of variation from sparse to dense patterns, whereas A. incisum showed only from sparse to intermediate patterns. A. ruprechtii showed from intermediate to dense patterns. The spore size of A. castaneo-viride was $54.63{\mu}m$, larger than other two species ($47.81{\mu}m$ in A. incisum and $44.22{\mu}m$ in A. ruprechtii). The level of undulation of epidermal cell wall was also different. A. incisum had the most shallowly undulated wall, and A. castaneo-viride had a pattern intermediate between the two presumed parental species. This same patterns was recognized in the density of stomata. The density of $45.91/mm^2$ in A. castaneo-viride was intermediate between the two presumed parental species ($67.00/mm^2$ in A. incisum, and $37.86/mm^2$ in A. ruprechtii). Chromosome number was constant (2x =2n = 72) as in A. incisum and A. ruprechtii. However, A. castaneo-viride showed a different ploidy level. The populations of Mt. Mai (Jeonbuk province) and Mt. Duryun (Jeonnam province) were diploid (2n = 72) which is a new record for this taxon, whereas the population of Mt. Buram (Seoul) was tetraploid (2n = 144). Conclusively, A. castaneo-viride was revealed to be a hybrid of A. ruprechtii and A. incisum based on evidence involving leaves, spores, epidermal cells, stomata and chromosome number.

Taxonomic characteristics of spores of 17 species belonging to 6 genera of the Korean Thelypteridaceae are examined. Description of each species and key to the species are provided. Spores of Korean Thelypteridaceae are monad and monolete with bilateral symmetry. Perispore, the sporoderm of spore, was found in all the species examined. The perispores and exospores of Thelypteris japonica var. japonica, T. japonica var. glabrata and Pseudocyclosorus subochthodes are much similar to each other, but the rest of taxa examined shows diverse patterns of the surface ornamentation of perispores and exopores enough to distinguish genera and sometimes to distinguish species in some genera. Previous study reported that perispore is not easily distinguished from exospore in Cyclosorus and Leptogramma. However, three species of Cyclosorus examined here show different pattern having scabrate or verrucate exospores and cristate or echinate perispores. Leptogramma pozoi ssp. mollisima also have echinate perispore and fossulate exospore. Macrothelypteris oligophlebia var. elegans and M. viridifrons have scabrate exospore which is contrast to previous report of reticulate exospore. Thelypteris glanduligera, T. angustifrons and T. laxa show same patterns of perispore and exospore with reticulate perispore and fossulate exospore and hence cannot be distinguished by spores only.

Cladistic analysis was performed to reveal the interspecific relationship of nine taxa of Korean Diplazium (Woodsiaceae). A total of 29 taxa with 20 taxa of eastern asiatic species as ingroup and three taxa of Athyrium as outgroup, were analyzed with 17 morphological characters. Diplazium nipponicum, recently found from Jeju Island, was most closely related to D. chinense by having the acuminate apex of pinnule segment and fascicled fronds. Diplazium nipponicum was distinguished from D. chinense by having scales and pinnule segments of serrated margin, and non-overlapped pinnules. Diplazium nipponicum and D. chinense were closely related to D. mesosorum and D. hajizoense in sequence, by having long acute apex in pinnae. These species formed same clade with D. subtripinnatum, which is endemic to Japan and D. kawakamii, which is distributed in Japan and Taiwan.

While preparing a floristic study of Korean Pteridophytes, we discovered the following two unrecorded species from Jeju Island: Cyclosorus penangianus (Hook.) Copel. and Pteris fauriei Hieron. C. penangianus can be distinguished from other Korean congeners of the genus Cyclosorus by having exindusiate sori, toward with sinus of ultimate segments of veinlets more than 4. P. fauriei can be distinguished from other Korean congeners of the genus Pteris by having ultimate segments with entire margins, veins reaching to leaf margin and membraneous petiolar scales.

The habitats characteristics of Polypodium vulgare L. in Ulleung-do were investigated to compile basic data for conservation and restoration. Natural habitats were located at altitudes of 410~748m with inclinations of $12{\sim}80^{\circ}$. Sixty six vascular plants were identified from 10 quadrats in 4 habitats. Dominant species among the woody plants, based on importance value, were Acer pictum subsp. mono(49.52%) in the tree (T1) layer, Sorbus amurensis(28.99%) in the subtree (T2) and Schizophragma hydrangeoides(51.99%), Ligustrum foliosum(8.82%), Fagus engleriana(7.25%) in the shrub (S) layer. Importance value for members of the herb (H) layer were as follows: Polypodium vulgare 23.23%; Maianthemum dilatatum 9.65%; Phryma leptostachya var. asiatica 9.23%; Dryopteris crassirhizoma 8.40%; Carex shimidzensis 6.75% and Dystaenia takesimana 5.42%. The importance value of the last five species were high, so they were at affinity with Polypodium vulgare in their habitats. Species diversity was 1.18, and dominance and evenness were found to be 0.11 and 0.84, respectively. The soil types were sandy loam. Average field capacity was 30.42%, and the organic matter and pH were 17.95%, and 4.70. Correlation coefficients based on environmental factors, vegetation and soil analysis were showed that positive correlations between species diversity and species richness, whereas between species diversity and dominance, coverage of Polypodium vulgare and species richness were showed negative correlations.
