  • Is. Dae Heucksan-do and Is. Heucksan-do and Is. Hong-do are located in the southwestern, apart 110km from Mockpo city, Korea., and the spider fauna of this area has never been explored. The author collected the spiders from these Islands in August 1974. Findings were; 1) 83 species of spiders belonging to 17 families, including 5 undetermined species. 2) Leptoneta sp., Carrhotus sp. (A), Marpissa sp. and Synagelides sp. are reserved for future study. 3) The materials were not sufficient for general discussion and conclusions of the spider fauna of these Islands. However, results can be summarized as follows: 7 northern species $8.9\%$ 9 southern species $11.5\%$, 4 cosmopolitan $5.1\%$ 4) The common species of mainland China were 41 $51.9\%$. 5) As the result of this survey, the spider fauna of this area is similar to that of the Is. Cheju-do and Is. Tsushima, in the south eastern area, and have much more common to China than any another area in Korea.

  • Spider fauna of Oksunbong located in Jecheon City, Chungcheongbuk-do, was surveyed provisionally from May to September in 1998. A total of 58 species of 40 genera in 18 families from 301 individuals of spiders were identified. Species richness of each family, there were 10 Araneid species (17.2%), followed by 9 Theridiid species (15.5%), and 8 Tetergnathid speices (13.8%). Zoogeographically, spider fauna of Oksunbong represented 1 cosmopolitan species (1.7%), 2 holarctic region species (3.4%), and 7 palearctic region species (12.1%). However, Korean endemic species were not collected during this survey. Thus it is suggested that spider fauna of Oksunbong was under northern regional influence.

  • A faunal study on Amphipods belonging to the class Malacostraca was conducted 26-29 August 2021 at 12 sites in Chujado Island, Korea. This study found that 68 amphipod species in 39 genera, 19 families were living on Chujado Island. Among these 19 families, the family Caprellidae (20 species) showed the highest abundance. Ampithoidae (7 species) and Dexaminidae (6 species) were subdominant families. The species Stenothoe valida Dana, 1852 (found at 10 of 12 sites) was the most frequent and widespread species. Caprella scaura Templeton, 1836 was identified at 9 of 12 sites and had the highest frequency of appearance among 20 species of Caprellidae. Among the 68 species, Ampithoe waialua J.L. Barnard, 1970 and Melita nagatai Yamato, 1987 are newly recorded species in Korean fauna. These newly recorded species are fully illustrated and compared with related species. We provide an amphipod fauna in Chujado Island with a list, figures, and a table.

  • (1) The author surveyed the environmental factors and the fauna of Sung-Yoo Cave(360m in length) from November 29 to December 2, 1961. (2) Air temperature, water temperature, moisture, water depth, water gravity, oxygen concentration carbon dioxide concentration and pH in water of the cave were studied as enveronmental factors. The results are shown in the Table 1~7 and Fig.3. (3) Four species of troglobite (22.2%). seven of troglophile(38.9%). four of troglozene(22.2%). and three of parasite constitute the terrestrial fauna of Sung-yoo Cave. In the other hand, all of the aquatic fauna(4 species of fish) of the cave were troglozene. (5) None of the species of animals listed in this paper has ever been recorded in Korea.

  • The purpose of this study was, as a preliminary step for understanding the whole aspects of the impacts of a weir on the ecosystems in upper and lower streams, to find out the impacts of the weirs with and without a fish-way. A survey on the aquatic ecosystem of upper and lower streams of weirs in Ham-an Stream was carried out from June to October, 2006. Results of the investigation showed that some meaningful effects on the ecosystems had occurred by the weirs. The fish fauna in upper stream of the weir with a fish-way appeared to include 3 families, 8 species, and 184 individuals, while that in the lower stream of the weir appeared to include 5 families, 14 species, and 664 individuals. The fish fauna in the upper stream of the weir without a fish-way appeared to include 3 families, 9 species, 107 individuals, while that in the lower stream of the weir appeared to include 9 families, 19 species, 520 individuals, disclosing that, no matter with or without a fish-way, fish fauna species diversity and size of population were more abundant and bigger in the lower stream than in the upper stream, but that difference of fish fauna species diversities between upper and lower streams of the weirs appeared to be bigger for the weir with a fish-way than for the weir without a fish-way. Benthos species diversity and size of population were found to be more abundant and bigger in lower stream than in upper stream, and in wet season than in dry season.
