1997년 4월부터 1998년 4월까지 경상북도 내연산 일대의 관속식물상 조사를 실시한 결과, 관속식물은 100과, 350속, 538속, 1아종, 92변종, 10품종, 1교잡종 총 642종류(texa)를 확인하였으며, 이 중 211종류는 금번조사에서 새롭게 추가하였다. 특히 고란초, 부들, 창포, 꽃창포, 노랑무늬붓꽃, 산작약, 둥근잎꿩의 비름, 꿩의 바람꽃, 연잎꿩의다리, 참좁쌀풀 등의 희귀 및 멸종위기 식물을 확증표본과 함께 보고함으로써 본 지역 식물상 조사에 큰 의의가 있다고 판단된다. 본 조사에서 확인한 희귀 및 멸종위기 식물은 총 29종류로서, 환경부 법정보호식물이 3종류, 환경부에서 실시하고 있는 전국자연환경조사에서 제시한 특정식물종 중 정밀생태종은 27종류, 그리고 산림청 희귀 및 멸종위기 식물은 15종류로 나타났으며, 둥근잎꿔의 비름, 망개나무, 노랑무늬붓꽃 등의 분포 등에 대해 논하였다.

Four species of Crambidae, Patania brevipennis (Inoue, 1982); Herpetogramma tominagai Yamanaka, 2003; Aethaloessa calidalis (Guenée, 1854); Anania subfumalis (Munroe et Mutuura, 1971), are reported for the first time from Korea. The genus Aethaloessa is new to the Korean fauna. Photos of external and genital features are provided for those species. Subspecies assignment and occurrence status in Korea are discussed for Aethaloessa calidalis and Anania subfumalis.

Four external and 27 cranial characters of Korean field mice (Apodemus peninsuluek from nine localities in eastern Asia, representing ave subspecies, were analyzed by multivariate statistical methods. Three forms were recognized: a large-size form from Korea (subspecies peninsulael, southern Manchuria (praeto4, and northern Manchuria (majofi a middle-size form from urestern Siberia (tschergal and southuvestern China (sowerbyi); a small-size form from northeastern China (sowerbyi). It is also revealed that variations among the three forms are clinal rind circular. It is confirmed that Apodemus peninsuloe could be classified into two subspecies (peninsulae and sowerbyl) within the distribution range in the continent of Asia, as noted tv Corbel (1978). However, it is found that subspecies peninsulae includes praetor and moior and that subspecies sowerbyi includes tscherga, indicating that subspecies tscherga is not the synonym of subspecies peninsulae, but that of subspecies sowerbyi.

The freshwater fish fauna of the Chuwangsan National Park as censused during June 1994 to December 1994 at 11 sampling sites to establish baseline data included 7 Korean endemic species and subspecies (Squalidus gracilis majimae, Squalidus multimaculatus, Cobitis longicorpus, Niwaella multifacisciata, Silurus microdorsalis, Liobagrus mediadiposalis and Odontobutks platycephala) belonging to 17 species in 6 families were collected in this region. Carassius auratus, Moroco oxycephalus, Zacco platypus, Wacco temmincdii, Misgurnus anguillicaudatus, Liobagrus mediadiposalis and Odontobutis platycephala were distributed at all of the regions on this sensus. Dominant species of thes region sere Moroco ozycephalus, Zacco temminckii and Odontobutis platyxephala.

Univariate and multivariate analyses of morphometric characters were performed with samples of striped field mice, Apodemus agrarius coreae Thomas, collected from Mt. Taebaek area, Mt. Wolak area, Mt. Palgong area, and Chongju area. It was confirmed that the samples of A. agrarius coreae were similar with one another to be grouped into a single subspecies. Moreover, clinal variation related with the altitude of localities where samples were collected was revealed in the first axis resulted from discriminant analysis and in the length of tail vertebrae.

This study examined the flora and community classification in the Forest Genetic Resources Reserves (FGRR) at Mt. Daeseng and Juparyeong to understand the degree of disturbance and the state of forest stand development within the Civilian Control Line (CCL) and to provide baseline data for preservation and management. Of the vascular plants dispersed throughout the study site, there were 98 families, 311 genera, 507 species, 6 subspecies, 65 varieties, and 10 forms, for a total of 588 taxa. Of these, 92 families, 290 genera, 459 species, 6 subspecies, 58 varieties, and 9 forms, for a total of 532 taxa of native plants, were determined to be dispersed around the FGRR at Mt. Daeseng, and 94 families, 259 genera, 364 species, 6 subspecies, 50 varieties, and 8 forms, for a total of 428 taxa of native plants, were confirmed to be dispersed around the FGRR at Juparyeong. There were 21 taxa of endemic Korean plants growing in the FGRR at Mt. Daeseng, with 14 taxa growing in the FGRR at Juparyeong. In terms of rare plants, 26 taxa were confirmed in the FGRR at Mt. Daeseng, and 10 taxa were confirmed in the FGRR at Juparyeong. A Cluster analysis was performed using vegetation data taken from 58 sample plots in each FGRR. The results showed a total of three representative community classifications from Mt. Daeseng: mixed mesophytic forest, Quercus mongolica-Acer pseudosieboldianum, and Quercus mongolica-Fraxinus rhynchophylla communities. Four representative community classifications were observed from Juparyeong: Quercus mongolica-broad leaved forest, Fraxinus rhynchophylla-broad leaved forest, Quercus mongolica, and Quercus communities. On the whole, the species diversity of the communities in Mt. Daeseng FGRR was greater than for the communities in Juparyeong FGRR. At Mt. Daeseng, the mixed mesophytic forest had the highest species diversity index at 1.590, while at Juparyeong, the Fraxinus rhynchophylla-broad leaved forest had the highest species diversity index at 1.319. These study results should serve as useful baseline data for future preservation and management of the demilitarized zone (DMZ) and the surrounding area.

Lonicera harae is a species of shrub in the Caprifoliaceae family, mostly distributed in East asia. So far, the related research on the genus of Lonicera is insufficient compared to the Lonicera japonica belonging to the same genus, which requires attention to domestic native plants. Therefore, this study aims to provide baseline data for cultivation and utilization through the growth environment and vegetation structure of the natural habitat. Lonicera harae, which plant found throughout the Korean Peninsula. The natural habitats of Lonicera harae is the forest, valley and lowland areas of the southern region. study examined 24 quadrats in 11 regions, including Gwangju, Wanju and Namhae. As a result, environmental condition of Lonicera harae was 8 to 483 m above sea level, normally distributed over 173 m, Slope was 5 to 25 degree with 8.5 degree on average. The list of plants were classified as a total of 229 taxa comprising 80 families, 166 genus, 198 species, 3 subspecies, 24 varieties, 4 forma. As a result of the clustering analysis, the three clusters were divided into three groups; Robinia pseudoacacia, Zelkova serrata, Larix kaempferi. Species diversity was 1.399 and Dominance and Evenness were found to be 0.978 and 0.022 respectively.

This study presents the flora of nonvascular plants (bryophytes) and vascular plants within the Wangpicheon Ecosystem and Landscape Conservation Area in Korea. The time of the survey was divided into four seasons. The fieldwork was conducted for a total of 18 days from November of 2016 to October of 2017. The land plants in the Wangpicheon conservation area were identified as 758 taxa with 164 families, 455 genera, 698 species, 10 subspecies, 47 varieties and 3 forms. Among them, bryophytes amounted to 122 taxa and vascular plants numbered 636 taxa. Native plant amounted to 693 taxa. In total, there are 113 floristic target species in Korea, including one level V taxon, in this case Swertia wilfordii; six level IV taxa; 31 level III taxa; 38 level II taxa; and 37 level I taxa. There are nine endemic plants, including Sillaphyton (=Peucedanum) podagraria, which is the endemic genus; two rare plants; fifteen northern plants; and one southern plant as target plants adaptable to climate change. Also, there are forty-six naturalized plants and five ecosystem-disturbance organisms. The results of this study suggest several species that should be preserved and can serve as basic information with which to establish conservation and management plans for the Wangpicheon conservation area.
