Some preliminary studies were conducted to find out whether the levee-burning could justifiable for the suppression of insect pests, particularly the smaller brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus F.). Density surveys on pests and their enemies (mostly spiders) were carried out upto the mid May at an experimental paddy field located in Suwon after of it's levee $(72\times1m)$ was burned on Feb. 20, 1987. Results were discussed in relation to density recovering of both pests and their possible enemies (spiders) and summarized as below. Not a single individual of any pest or enemy was found from the levee upto sometime after the levee-burning. Grasses started to grow more vigorously in burned ares than in unburned upto about 60 days after the burning. And densities of both pest and enemies grew higher in burned areas than in unburned from about 75 days after the burning (in Early may). It is suspected that all individuals of pests and enemies fond from the burned areas could have immigrated from the surrounding areas. If levee-burning was carried out in much wider areas, much longer time would be needed to recover the density of both pests and enemies to the center region of the burning. Wingless spiders would require even longer time than winged pest species to re-establish in the center region of the widely burned field. Pirata subpiraticus, the most abundant spider species in Korean paddy fields, starts to move about and searches for food at above $9^{\circ}C$ which is somewhat lower than the critical temperature for the pest species. Thus P. subpiraticus would require more food than other pest species early in the spring, and therefore, it would have lower probability to survive than pest species particularly in burned areas. Experiments for pest suppression with levee-burning would better be carried on in much wider areas, and its justification seems to be discussed after man other disciplines related to both pests and their natural enemies were throughly studied together with their density surveys. However, according to the present point of vie, the opinion that levee-burning is helpful for controlling pests which over winter on levee areas could not be justifiable.

To inverstigate the boring insects in Pinus densiflora forests, bait logs were set up in healthy-looking forests of Chunchon Hongchon and in damaged forests(gall formation rate 70----) by Thecodiplosis japonensis of Pyongchang Jeongsun. The period of investigation was from April to August in 1999. Boring insects investigated were 35 species of 12 families. Five species of them were unrecorded species from Korea. Natural enemies investigated were 5 species of 2 families. The prefered parts of tree according to species of boring insects were lower trunk in Siphalinus gigas and 3 other species, middle-stem in Monochamus sutor and 7 other species, and top stem in Orthotomicus suturalis and 1 other species. Hylurgops interstitialis were found in all parts of tree. Sap wood was attacked by Xyleborus validus Cerambycidae, heart wood by Hylobitelus haroldi Siphalinus gigas, and cambium region by Pissodes nitidus P. obscurus Shirahoshizo insidiosus Scolytidae.

산림청 임업연구원(원장 서승진)은 몬트리올의정서에서 오존층 파괴물질로 지정되어 2005년부터 세계적으로 사용이 금지되게 되는 훈증농약인 메틸브로마이드(Methyl Bromide : MB)를 대체할 수 있는 훈증활성물질 이소치오시아네트(Isothiocyanate)를 양고추냉이(겨자무)로부터 추출하는데 성공하였다. 메틸브로마이드는 세계적으로 토양소득, 검역, 시설물 훈증에 약 7만톤이 사용되는 유독성 물질로서 대체물질 개발을 위해 여러나라에서 연구 중에 있으며 우리나라도 OECD 가입국으로서 환경친화적 무공해 농약의 개발이 시급한 실정이었다. 이소치오시아네이트는 쌀, 옥수수, 콩 등 각종 곡물에 피해를 주는 쌀바구미, 팥바구미, 화랑곡나방, 권연벌레 등 저장곡물해충에 메틸보로마이드와 대등한 살충효과가 있는 무공해 천연물로서 메틸브로마이드를 대체할 수 있을 것으로 전망하고 있다. 앞으로 제형개발 등 상품화가 되면 수입에 의존하고 있는 저장곡물 방충농약을 대체할 수 있어 연간 300만 달러의 외화 절감은 물론 지구환경파괴를 막을 수 있는 획기적 계기를 마련하였다.

The purpose of this study was to develop evaluation indices for forest landscape classification. The indices were chosen to enable forest managers to establish effective landscape management strategies through three times of focus group interviews and email survey with experts. The 13 landscape evaluation indices were finally divided into four categories. They were ecological health (degree of green naturality, degree of ecological naturality, disease and insect damage, crown vitality), aesthetic visual quality (naturalness, harmony, diversity, traditionality, aesthetic appreciation, rarity), and sensitivity (level of tourism/recreational use), interruptions (damaged land, artificial structures). The five-level was suggested for the forest landscape classification system.

An fungus gnat, Bradysia agrestis in the family Sciaridae was collected from Pinus spp. seedlings. This pest is a newly recorded insect from P. thunbergii, P. rigida, P. rigitaeda, and P. densiflora seedling. Brief morphological characters, damage symptom, host plants associated with the B. agrestis were recored. Significant variation in damaged of Pinus spp. seedling was attributed to differences between pine species(P. thunbergii : 15.4-20.0%, P. rigida : 23.1-48.8%, and P. rigitaeda : 13.8-67.5%, respectively) and sowing times(May : P. densiflora, 0%; P. rigida, 0%, July : P. densiflora, 20.0%; P. rigida, 49.4%, respectively).

In Korea, 63% of the nation's land is made up of forests, and the average temperature of the earth has been increasing. Forest service has been operating a proactive control system for preventing the spread of forest pests such as Pine wilt disease. but there were some hurdles in timely control due to weather, topography and manpower management difficulties. In this paper, we propose a model for building fast, accurate and efficient control system by categorizing the damage and dead wood automatically based on the images acquired using small unmanned aerial vehicles based on information and communication technology. In particular, the proposed model establishes an effective response system for government affairs through cooperation in the private sector. It can also create new jobs in the unmanned aerial vehicle business and service industries.

The management of Ricania spp. is difficult because this pest has a wide host range and diverse habitats such as agricultural, suburban, urban, and forested areas. However, the researches for Ricania spp. management have been focused on only agricultural crops. Thus, it is required to determine the arboreal host preference of Ricania spp. at the surrounding areas of the farms to increase its management efficiency. To determine its host preference at arboreal plants, we reviewed the previous studies and investigated the densities of Ricania spp. at woody plants with high ecological importance but insufficiently studied. This study identified 120 species in 53 families of arboreal hosts of Ricania spp. Only Cornus officinalis and Styrax japonicus were preferred by all developmental stages of Ricania spp. The host preference of Ricania spp. was changed according to its developmental stages. This phenomenon would be caused by that each developmental stage of Ricania spp. would prefer different parts of woody plant, and require different nutrients for its survivor and reproduction. These results of this study could be helpful to make a plan of comprehensive management strategies for Ricania spp.
