Eranthis stellata Maxim. is a perennial plant that grows around the valley. E. stellata is concerned about the decline in natural habitats due to climate change in KOREA, continues to be observed and protected as an endangered species (Least Concrned, LC). Nevertheless, studies on the characteristics of the seeds of E. stellata are insufficient. So, this study analyzed the morphological characteristics and dormancy types of seeds. Seeds of E. stellata was collected in April at Gyeongsangbuk-do Arboretum and kept at 5 ℃ until using. To investigate the morphology of seeds, an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used. GA3 treated or untreated seeds (4 replicates of 25 seeds each) were observed germination and embryo growth for 1 month at 5 ℃ and 25/15 ℃ (12h day/12h night). The seed surface of E. stellata, light brown, was observed as a common characteristic of Eranthis genus, reticulate. The short axis of seeds was 1.11~1.77mm (average 1.44mm), and the long axis was 1.27~1.91mm (average 1.63mm), which was investigated in a slightly round shape (subglose). While no germination was observed at all conditions, Embryo growth was observed at 5 ℃ both in the control group and with GA3treated groups. Thus, seeds of E. stellata are classified as morphological physiological dormancy (MDP), which requires embryonic development and dormant break at the same time. These results can be useful information for determining morphological physiological seed dormancy and germination, and will be an important basic data for seed propagation of E. stellata as a resource.

Terebelliphilus simplex n. gen., n. sp. and Myxomolgus invulgus n. sp. are described from the tubicolous polychaetes found in the intertidal shores in the Yellow Sea. The new genus Terebelliphilus belongs to the family Sabelliphilidae but is characteristic in bearing the reduced segmentations In legs 1-4, an unusual sexual dimorphism in antennule, and the ventral location of genital areas. Myxomolgus invulgus is readily distinguishable from its congeners by the morphological features of rostrum, antennule, mandible, maxilla, leg 4 and female leg 5.

Two newly recorded small orb weavers, Araneus yasudai Tanikawa, 2001 and Neoscona flavida sp. nov., with characteristic epigynal scape belonging to Araneidae are described with measurements and morphological illustrations from Korea. Both species were collected with sweep net between shrubs and bushes in mountain forest and between reeds in reclaimed land, respectively.

This study was conducted from April 1 to September 31, 1973. Ten strains of Fusarium spp. were isolated from the diseased ginseng in two local areas at Kangwha-Gun nad Kumsan-Gun in Korea. Among of them, 2 strains ($G_1$, $G_4$) did not have virulence to ginseng in reinoculation. Their cultural, morphological characteristic and hose virulence to pea seedling were examined. Taxonomical identification of 8 isolates followed by the method of Wollenweber, Snyder nad Toussoun, Booth, Matuo and Snyder. All of eight strains were identified as the Fusarium solani f.sp.pisi(Jones) Synd. et Hans.

Tissue reactions in gills of cultured red seabream, Pagrus major, toan epitheliocystis infection are described. Basophilic intracellular inclusions in gills contained prokaryotes, most probably a Chlamydia-like organisms according to morphological characteristic. A few types of tissue reaction were found around the inclusions: encapsulation, epithelial hyperplasia, lamellar fusion, and inflammation. It was considered that eosinophilic granule cells and macrophages might take part in defense reactions against this prokaryotic organism.

Paradexamine jindoensis n. sp. belonging to family Dexaminidae was collected from Jindo Island, Korea. The new species is fully illustrated and compared with related congeners. The new species resembles highly P. houtete, in having the tooth formulae of dorsal pleonites, 1-3-3-3, rear to front and in bearing short spines on the mandible. However, it is characteristic in having the several morphological differences of mouth parts, slender appendages, and longer peduncular article 2 of antenna 1 than article 1.

The first zoeal stage of Macromedaeus orientalis (Takeda et Miyake, 1969) is described and illustrated. Its morphological characteristics are compared with those of other known species of the subfamily Xanthinae. The first zoeas of M. orientalis and M. distinguendus are similar, but they can be distinguished from each other by the characteristic of antenna. The former has a smooth antenna with a rounded tip, while the latter has a serrated antenna with a spinous tip.

This study is purposed to find fundamental characteristics in Grassi's architecture which has architectural principles in architecture itself and in the general frame of the historical facts of architecture. His architectural theories can be explained for rationality, historicity, universality. The method of architectural composition can be divided into urban morphological characteristic and compositional characteristic of architecture. The characteristics of the former are the reconstruction of the urban structure by the readjustment of an urban axis which is based on historical continuity of the city, the open court which is a passage transformed from colonnade that is the historical vernacular type and the respect for the city-line which goes with historical context. The characteristics of the latter are the use transformed of nine square which gives consideration to centrality and typology at the same time and the hierarchic division of the principal space and the subordinate space for the functional typical purpose. This analysis shows that Grassi's architecture is on the base of historical continuity and urban reality and for him architectural work is mental work which conflict with the real world for the reconstruction of the city.

Traditional taxonomic methods used for the identification and differentiation of ginsengs rely primarily on morphological observations or physiochemical methods, which cannot be used efficiently when only powdered forms or shredded material is available. Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was used to determine the unique DNA profiles that are characteristic not only of the genus Panax but also of various Panax subgroups collected from five different countries. RAPD results of OP-5A primer showed a specific single band that is characteristic of all ginseng samples. RAPD results of OP-13B primer demonstrated that OP-13B primer could be used as a unique RAPD marker to differentiate Panax species. These results support that this approach could be applied to distinguish Korean Ginseng (Panax ginseng) from others at the molecular level.

Freshwater red tides due to dinoflagellates have caused spectacular and regular “summer reddening” in recent years in Baishihai Lake, a temperate, meromictic, meso- or oligotrophic, high-altitude, landslide-dammed, deep lake located at the eastern edge of Tibetan Plateau in China. Based on morphological and molecular analyses, the causative organism has been identified as a new woloszynskioid dinoflagellate, Tovellia diexiensis Q. Zhang et G. X. Liu sp. nov. The vegetative cells are 20-32 μm long and 16-24 μm wide. They have a hemispherical episome and a broadly rounded hyposome with a short characteristic antapical spine. Usually cells are bright red due to the presence of numerous red-pigmented bodies, which often masked the yellowish green discoid chloroplasts. The amphiesma of motile cells comprise mainly quadrilateral, pentagonal or hexagonal thin plates, arranged in 4-5 latitudinal series on the episome, 1 in the cingulum and 4 on the hyposome. Molecular phylogenies based on small subunit ribosomal DNA and large subunit ribosomal DNA (LSU) indicate T. diexiensis from Baishihai Lake to belong to the family Tovelliaceae, which was monophyletic in our LSU phylogenies. During the bloom-forming period in 2005, cell density of T. diexiensis reached 9.15 × 10⁵ cells L⁻¹. Astaxanthin and its diester were found to be the major pigments in T. diexiensis, resulting in a characteristic blood-red color of the water in Baishihai Lake.
