The genus Italochrysa Principi in Korea has been recorded with only one species, I. japonica (McLachlan) so far. Here we report that Italochrysa nigrovenosa Kuwayama is recognized for the first time in Korea. Specific description, a key based on diagnostic characters, and adult and genital images of the species are provided.

We reported an unrecorded species of the genus Allium (Alliaceae) which is growing along riversides in the central part of Korean peninsula. A. longistylum Baker, has been known to distribute only in China. The new common name, 'Gang-bu-chu', was given considering the habitat characteristics such as growing riversides in Korea. In this study, we described morphological characters, and provided illustrations as well as photographs of the habitat.

The taxonomic revision of the family Scorpaenidae was conducted based on the specimens collected from the coasts of the Korean Peninsula from 1989 to 1992. The scorpionfishes of Korea are composed of 30 species in 8 genera, and the keys to species and genera are provided with svnonvms and their distributions. Four species newly reported from Korea are redescribed and figured: Sebastiscus tenius (Barsukov et Chen), Sebastes steindachneri Hilgendorf, S. minor Barsukov and S. zonatus Chen et Barsukov. It is noted that the genus Sebastes comprise 18 species in Korean waters without endemics. Most species of the Korean scorrionfishes are shared with Japanese and Taiwanese faunas including temperate and tropical scorpionfishes. Most Sebastes species are recognized as temperate elements but other genera of this family are regarded as tropical elements.

A taxonomic and floristic account for Korean Elachista is provided. All previously reported taxa from Korea are reappraised. Elachista in Korea consists of five species: E. falcata Lee sp. nov., E. nipponica Umezaki, E. okamurae Yoshida, E. orbicularis (Ohta) Skiner, and E. tenuis Yamada. Elachista fucicola (Vell.) Aresch. 1. typica Rosenvinge sensu Kang (1966) that was previously recorded in Korean flora was assigned to another taxon, E. okamurae Yoshida. Elachista taeniaeformis Yamada is transferred to the new genus, Proselachista Lee et Garbary. Elachista falcata is characterized by having a pseudoparenchymatous medulla, assimilatory filaments with equal diameter over their entire length and small projections on the lower portion, falcate paraphyses, and gourd-shaped unilocular sporangia.

This study describes a new record of a thelotremoid lichen (Leucodecton desquamescens) from South Korea. The taxon is characterized by thick, bulging thallus with many calcium oxalate crystal inclusions; an immersed, round to irregular ascomata with free exciple, ellipsoid to $\pm$ roundish submuriform, brown ascospores, and lack of secondary metabolites. A detailed taxonomic description and comments are presented for this taxon. The lichen genus Leucodecton is reported for the first time in South Korea.

We identified 22 ciliate species, including five unrecorded ciliate species, from temporary ponds on a grass lawn. The five unrecorded species are as follows: class Nassophorea - Pseudomicrothorax agilis Mermod, 1914, Nassula exigua Kahl, 1931, class Colpodea - Cyrtolophosis mucicola Stokes, 1885, Maryna ovata (Gelei, 1950) Foissner, 1993, and class Spirotrichea - Meseres corlissi Petz & Foissner, 1992. Most of these 22 ciliate species disappeared from a raw culture within a few days (probably encystment), and a few cells were available from some species that resulted in incomplete identifications (e.g., genus-level). About the unrecorded five ciliate species, they are small in size (<60 ㎛ in vivo), and two of them live in a hyaline dwelling-tube, which is easily deserted by a cell with a stress. Their taxonomic classification is summarized as three classes, five orders, five families, and five genera. Here, we provide brief descriptions, micrographs of their morphology, and some remarks.

A gobjoid fish, Pierogobius zacalies is described from three spedmens colleded in Songjong-dong, Pusan-si, on February 10, 1989. This Is the first definItive record in Korean waters. This fish is disdnguished from the other species of the genus Pierogobius by the combinadon of the following charaders: lateral-line scales > 113, soft dorsal fin rays VIII, i-24-25, soft anal fin rays i-24-25, and 5 dark-brown vertical broad band on the body. "Dasotdonggal-- mang-dug is proposed as Korean name of this species.cies.

한국산 굴둑거미속에 관해서는 이미 저자의 한사람인 백의 보고(1966)가 있으나 금반 남궁준이 각지의 동굴에서 채집한 표본을 조사한 결과 다음 2 신종을 얻었기에 보고한다. 신종명 Cybaeus mosanensis n. sp. C. whanseunensis n. sp. 전기 백의 보고 중 한국 미기록종으로 기재한 C. nipponicus 는 남궁이 채집한 수컷의 palpus의 형태등에 의하여 이와는 뚜렷이 다른 한 신종으로 판명되었으므로 이에 C. mosanensis 라 명명하여 여기에 다시 기재하였다. 암컷은 이미 전보에서 상세히 기재하였으므로 본보에서는 수컷만 취급하였다. 따라서 본보이전에 저자들이 보고한 C.nipponicus 는 모두 C. mosanensis 의 synonym 으로 한다. 여기 기재한 2 신종 중 C. mosanensis 는 동굴 밖에서도 많이 발견되지만 C. whanseunensis 는 지금까지 동굴에서만 채집되었다. 이로서 한국산 굴둑거미속은 C. longus Paik, 1966 및 C. mosanensis, C. whanseunensis 의 3 종이 된다.

One newly recorded species, Dryopteris namegatae, sect. Hirtipedes, was collected in forests in Jeju-do. Dryopteris namegatae (vernacular name: 'Tam-ra-top-ji-ne-go-sa-ri') was distinguished from other Korean congeners of sect. Hirtipedes of the genus Dryopteris by having stiff black scales on stipe and rachis, less narrowed base of lamina, and adaxial surface of pinna immersed along veins. Dryopteris hangchowensis ('Gak-si-top-ji-ne-go-sa-ri', new local name), recorded without any comments and description, was reexamined with similar taxa and was distinguished by smaller plants, brilliant leaves, many prominent fimbriate blackish scales on stipe and rachis, long-pointed apex of lamina and pinna, halfway-lobed pinna, and narrowest pinna. Descriptions and illustrations of the two species and their photographs in the habitat are provided along with a key to the species of sect. Hirtipedes of Dryopteris in Korea.
