Taxonomic accounts are given to the four species of Corallinaceae, Amphiroa beauvoisii lamouroux, Jania yenoshimensis (Yendo) Yendo, Serraticardia maxima (Yendo) Silva and Corallina officinalis linnaeus, collected from Ullungdo Island, Korea. S. maxima (Y endo) Silva is introduced for the first time in Korea in this study. J. yenoshimensis (Yendo) Yendo accords well with the type speciemens but is very similar to J. arborescens in outer appearance. However it is distinguished from that in height and branching pattern. C. officinalis accords well with other plants collected from Europe and Japan except for large number of medullary cell layers.layers.

Taxonomic accounts are given to four species of Jania, Rhodophyta from Korea; J. adhaerens Lamouroux, J. nipponica (Yendo) Yendo, J. radiata (Yendo) Yendo and J. yenoshimensis (Yendo) Yendo. J. adhaerens is an epiphyte and characterized by massive tufts with decussate-dichotomous branches. J. nipponica growing on the rocks is different from other plants by erect tuft with low-angle dichotomous branches. J. radiata has a small epiphytic thallus (5 mm) and flat, flabellate-dichotomous branches. And J. yenoshimensis grows on the rocks in sublittoral regions and has compressed, fastigate, regular-dichotomous branches. This species is distinguished form others by the formation of slender moniliform branchlets. Among these, J. yenoshimensis is first reported in Korea in this study.
