This paper presents new data on free-living heterotrophic euglenids (Euglenozoa, Protista) that occurred in the marine sediments at Cape Tribulation, Queensland, Australia. Twenty-nine species from 9 genera are described with uninterpreted records based on light microscopy, including one new taxon: Notosolenus capetribulationi n. sp. There was little evidence for endemism because the majority of heterotrophic euglenid species encountered here have been reported or were found from other habitats.

A noctuid species, Tamba igniflua (Wileman and South), was reported for the first time in Korea. One female of T. igniflua was successfully reared with leaves of Eurya japonica from a caterpillar collected in the southwestern part of the Korean Peninsula. Diagnostic characteristics of the species are provided with a brief description of caterpillar and adult, including genitalic structure.

One new species of cellular slime molds, Dictyostelium caudabasis sp. nov. Shim et chang, is isolated from soils in the Quercus mongolica forest of Seorak monutain, South Korea. D. caudabasis is charaterized by small sorophores, scarecely phototrophic, irregularly or sparsely branches, capitate-simple or capitate-compound and sometimes obtuse-simple tips, and conical and sometimes clavate bases. Spore are elliptical, $6.52~4.82{\times}3.40~2.83{\mu}m(avg.\;5.72{times}3.17{\mu}m$), L/W index 1.70-1.92(avg. 1.80) without polar grnules.

The genus Hypomyces contains fungi that grow on mushrooms, including agarics, boletes, and Aphyllophorales. While 53 Hypomyces species have been reported worldwide, only one was in Korea. In this study, two new Korean species were identified as H. luteovirens and H. tubariicola based on morphology and internal transcribed spacer sequencing.

One new copepod species (Doropygus hoi n. sp.) is described based on specimens taken from solitary ascidians collected from the East Sea (Sea of Japan) and the South Sea. Doropygus pinguis Ooishi, 1962 taken from solitary ascidians, Styela plicata (Lesueur) and Boltenia echinata (Linnaeus), collected from 8 localities of the South Sea and the East Sea are redescribed.

Harpacticoid copepods are one of the most important components in the benthic meiofaunal community. In spite of their numerical significance the study of harpacticoids in Korea, as distinct from meiofauna in general (Kim et al., 1998, 2000a, b), has been limited. During the course of investigation on ecological significance of harpacticoids in the intertidal sandy shore, a new species of the genus Rhizothrix was determined and described here. (omitted)

One ennomine species, Odontopera aurata (Prout, 1915) was newly recorded from Korea. Odontopera aurata, a species of Ennominae, is characterized by the dark yellowish forewing that shows centrally mottled with blackish dots, weakly slanted and blackish postmedial line, and undulating termen, and the yellowish hindwing with black postmedial line and short discal dot. Odontopera aurata is externally indistinguishable from O. arida but can be distinguished by the shape of furcal arm of the male genitalia. We provide diagnosis, description of adults and male genitalia, and DNA information.

Recently, we introduced a new method for rapid screening of bacterial species- or subspecies-specific DNA probes, named “inverted dot blot hybridization screening method”. We then applied this method to develop species- or strain- specific DNA probes for Prevotella intermedia and Prevotella nigrescens. In those studies, among 96 candidate DNA probes which were screened by the new method, 5 probes were confirmed as being putatively strain-specific : 3 probes for P. nigrescens 9336 (ATCC 33563), one for each p. intermedia ATCC 25611 and one for P. nigrescens G8-9K-3 (ATCC 49046). In the present study, we evaluated by Southern blot analysis a DNA probe Pi29-L, one of the 96 candidate probes described above, whether it is specific for the strain ATCC 25611 off. intermedia. Our data show that the probe Pi29-L is potentially P. intermedia ATCC 25611-specific, which can be useful for the detection and identification of the strain, particularly in maintenance of the strain.
