Veronica rotunda var. subintegra (Nakai) T. Yamaz. is perennial herb belonging to the family Scrophulariaceae, native to Korea. Plant growth regulators, cutting mediums, cutting position, and leaf size were examined to investigate the requirements for cutting propagation of V. rotunda var. subintegra. This study was conducted over a period of 6 weeks from March to May 2017 in the Division of Plant Resources, Korea National Arboretum. For all treatments, survival and rooting percentage was 100%. In PGRs experiment, the number of roots and shoot length treated with 100 mg/L IBA treatment was significantly higher than that of NAA treatment. The shooting percentage was decreased with an increase of the PGRs concentration. In growing substrates experiment, the number of roots on commercial soil (61.2) was the highest, followed commercial + kanuma soil (45.7), and the lowest was kanuma soil (41.8). The shoot length treated with commercial soil (8.9 cm) was significantly greater than that of kanuma soil (4.1 cm). In cutting positions experiment, the number of roots treated with apical (56.6) was significantly higher than that of basal (38.8). In leaf-cut experiment, the number of roots and of shoot length treated with full leaf was significantly higher than that of half leaf. As a result, we recommend treating cuttings with 100 mg/L IBA treatment, commercial soil, apical position, and full leaf for successful cutting propagation of V. rotunda var. subintegra.

Eleven Coleophora species were found in a faunistic survey for the family Coleophoridae (Lepidoptera: Gelechioidea) in Baengnyeong and Yeonpyeong Islands, located near the Northern Limit Line in the West Sea. Among them, three species Coleophora adjunctella Hodgkinson, C. chenopodii Oku, and C. kurokoi Oku have been recorded for the first time in Korea. For the newly recorded species, taxonomic remarks and illustrations of the adults and female genitalia have been provided.

Monochoria vaginalis var. angustifolia (Pontederiaceae) was newly found in a furrow in Imha-ri, Boeun-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do for the first time in Korea. This taxon is distinguished from the other species of the genus Monochoria in Korea by having the smallest plant height, very narrow lanceolate leaves, a cuneate leaf base, and raceme with 1 to 2 flowers. A local name was newly given, 'Ga-neun-moul-dal-ge-bi' for the species. The morphological characteristics and illustrations of the taxon as well as photographs at the habitat are provided with a taxonomic key to the species of Monochoria in Korea.

The newly recorded species, Diplazium mettenianum (Miq.) C. Chr. var. mettenianum (Athyriaceae) was collected from a forest in Min-oreum, Jeju-do. D. mettenianum var. mettenianum (vernacular name: 'Kit-ju-reum-go-sa-ri') is distinguished from other Korean congeners of the genus Diplazium by having pinnae shallowly or halfway lobed, lower pinnae stalked, lanceolate, pinna segments serrate margin and obtuse apex. A new Korean name, 'Kit-ju-reum-go-sa-ri', was given based on the shape of pinna halfway lobed. Descriptions and illustrations of this taxon and its photograph in the habitat are provided along with a key to the species of Diplazium from Korea.

Six species of oak are commonly found in Korean forests growing together with evergreen pines. Korean oak forests have recently been attacked by ambrosial fungi of the genus Raffaelea and by many other fungal species that are vectored by the beetle Platypus koryoensis. We investigated a full list of the diverse decay fungi as a first step to better understand the association between these fungi and oak trees, as well as considering effective management methods for oak forests in Korea. Through examination of specimens deposited in the Seoul National University Fungus Collection (SFC) and the National Institute of Biological Resources (NIBR), 523 decay fungi (104 species) associated with oak trees were identified and a full list is provided.

During the course of the execution of the project entitled Distribution Research of Rare Plants, we found the habitats of two rare ferns with obscure and/or extremely restricted distribution ranges, as previously unreported habitats. A subantarctic fern reported on Hamgyeong-do and Gangwon-do, Dryopteris coreano-montana Nakai, was found on Mt. Ibam in Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do. A subtropical fern reported south of Jeju-do, Dryopteris decipiens (Hook.) Kuntze, was newly found on Mt. Cheongwan of Jangheung-gun in Jeollanam-do.

현재 전 세계적으로 물 부족 현상이 대두되는 가운데 그 양상은 더욱 심해지고 있다. 이러한 물 부족 현상의 악화됨에 따라 수자원 관리의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 효율적인 수자원의 관리를 위해서는 근본적으로 물 순환 과정인 수문현상의 이해가 필요하다. 수문현상은 증발산, 강우, 침투, 유출 등의 일련의 과정을 말하는 것으로 이를 해석하기 위해서는 많은 수문 인자들의 정확한 관측이 필요하다. 특히 지표와 대기간의 에너지 및 물의 교환에 대한 중요한 요소인 토양수분은 수문현상의 해석을 위해 필수적인 인자이다. 따라서 수문현상의 정확한 해석을 위해서는 토양수분의 관측이 필요하며, 이에 대한 많은 관측이 이루어져 왔다. 최근에는 원격탐사의 기술의 발달로 토양수분의 관측에 대해 시공간적인 장점을 가지는 인공위성을 이용하고 있다. 토양수분관측에 있어서 많은 위성들이 이용되고 있으나 대다수의 경우 발사시점이 오래되었으며, 현재 2009년 ESA (European Space Agency) 의 지구관측 미션의 일환으로 발사된 SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) 가 이용기간이 남아있다. 단, SMOS는 한국을 포함한 동아시아 및 유럽지역에 대해 RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) 의 전파방해로 우리나라의 경우 토양수분 Product의 직접적인 이용이 어려운 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 SMOS의 Product인 밝기온도를 이용하여 복원알고리즘을 통해 토양수분을 복원하였다. 또한 복원된 알고리즘의 정확성을 평가하기 위해 한반도의 지점관측된 토양수분 데이터를 이용하여 본 알고리즘을 검증하였다.

The natural distribution of Morus tiliaefolia Makino and Morus mongolica C.K. Schneider growing wild in the Korean peninsula are as follows. The Morus tiliaefolia Makino is distributed in mountain areas in land and islands with along seaside northernmost at 30°8'North latitude, Hwacheon, Kangwon-do and it also unusually exists at the mountain Chilbo in Myeongcheon-gun, Hamgyeongbuk-do. On the other hand, the Morus mongolica C.K. Schneider is distributed westside the great mountainrange of Baeckdoo further-north to Jangsoo-mieon, Jaeryeong-gun, Hwanghae-do (38°15'N.), but it also unusually survives at the area of Samcheok, Kangwon-do (37°24')

A female specimen of Sternuchopsis (s. str.) waltoni (Boheman, 1844), belonging to the tribe Mecysolobini (Curculionidae: Molytinae), was collected by beating method from Gadeok-do in Busan, the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. This weevil pest is designated as a quarantine pest under the Plant Quarantine Act (2019) in Korea. It is considered unreasonable to determine whether this species is an invasive or native species in Korea, as damage to crops has not been confirmed and there is no other collection information. This study aims to provide accurate diagnosis information including illustration and ecological information to gain more domestic occurrence information on this weevil.
