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.

In this study, we identified two marine synchaetid rotifers, Synchaeta grimpei Remane, 1929 and S. vorax Rousselet, 1902, in Korea, which are the first synchaetid rotifers collected from a marine environment in the country. Prior to this study, all six synchaetids recorded in Korea were collected from freshwater environments. The morphological characteristics of both species are consistent with those recorded in previous studies of each species. Synchaeta grimpei is distinguished from other synchaetid rotifers by its cone-shaped body, wide and flat apical field, indistinct auricles, and long foot with two separated small toes. The morphological characteristics of Korean S. vorax specimens were most similar to the original description of Rousselet (1902), with its slender and cylindrical trunk shape, strongly convex apical field, and short foot with two small, separated toes. The rami of the Korean S. vorax specimen contained one frontal hook and several distinct and large teeth. Here, we provide the morphological diagnoses of the two synchaetid rotifers and the sequences of the partial mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) of the two species.

The genus Chroomonas is a group of blue-green colored cryptomonads. This study describes two freshwater Chroomonas species for the first time in South Korea: Chroomonas nordstedtii Hansgirg and Chroomonas coerulea (Geitler) Skuja. We examined the morphology and ultrastructure of these species by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. These two Chroomonas species were blue-green colored and ovate to oval-shaped. Chroomonas nordstedtii was characterized by two Maupas ovals with hexagonal periplast plates, whereas C. coerulea was characterized by one eyespot with rectangular periplast plates. A molecular phylogeny with data from nuclear SSU rRNA and chloroplast rbcL genes revealed that Korean C. nordstedtii formed a distinct clade with NIES-708, NIES-1004 from Japan, and UTEX 2779 from Colorado, USA, while C. coerulea formed a clade with ACOI 1366 from Portugal.

The genus Parornix Spuler, 1910 is a small group within the subfamily Parornichinae belonging to the family Gracillariidae in Korea. The subfamily Parornichinae was recently established as a taxonomic category by Kawahara & Ohshima, 2017, based on the largest dataset in a phylogenetic study. In this study, we reviewed the Korean species of the genus Parornix. In total, 5 species were recognized from Korea. Among them, one species, Parornix loganella (Stainton, 1848) is recorded for the first time from Korea. Descriptions and illustrations of the adults and genitalia of them are provided herein.

농어목 비늘베도라치과에 속하는 Neoclinus nudiceps 1개체가 대한민국 서해의 홍도에서 2012년 6월 13일에 채집되었다. 본 종은 측선이 등지느러미 3~4번째 등지느러미 가시 사이에 이르며, 두부에는 2쌍의 피부돌기가 1열로 있고, 앞쪽 피부돌기의 끝부분은 6개, 뒤쪽 피부돌기의 끝부분은 1개인 특징이 있다. N. monogrammus와 형태적으로 비슷하지만 측선의 길이에서 차이를 보인다(N. nudiceps는 3~4번째 등지느러미 가시아래까지 vs. N. monogrammus는 6~9번째 등지느러미 가시아래까지). 본 연구는 우리나라 해역에서 N. nudiceps를 처음으로 기록하고 있으며, 새로운 국명으로 "짧은털비늘베도라치"를 제안한다.

Cyanobacteria are distributed worldwide, and many new cyanobacterial species are discovered in tropical region. The Nostoc-like genus Amazonocrinis has been separated from the genus Nostoc based on polyphasic methods. However, species diversity within this genus remains poorly understood systematically because only one species (Amazonocrinis nigriterrae) has been described. In this study, two novel strains (NUACC02 and NUACC03) were isolated from moist rice field soil in Thailand. These two strains were characterized using a polyphasic approach, based on morphology, 16S rRNA phylogenetic analysis, internal transcribed spacer secondary structure and ecology. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences confirmed that the two novel strains formed a monophyletic clade related to the genus Amazonocrinis and were distant from the type species A. nigriterrae. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (<98.1%) between novel strains and all other closely related taxa including the Amazonocrinis members exceeded the cutoff for species delimitation in bacteriology, reinforcing the presence of a new Amazonocrinis species. Furthermore, the novel strains possessed unique phenotypic characteristics such as the presence of the sheath, necridia-like cells, larger cell dimension and akinete cell arrangement in long-chains and the singularity of D1-D1', Box-B, V2, and V3 secondary structures that distinguished them from other Amazonocrinis members. Considering all the results, we described our two strains as Amazonocrinis thailandica sp. nov. in accordance with the International Code of Nomenclature for Algae, Fungi and Plants.

Two genera of the Rhodymeniales, Halopeltis and Leptofauchea, are here reported for the first time from the Hawaiian Islands and represent the deepest records for both genera. Molecular phylogenetic analyses of cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI), rbcL, and large subunit ribosomal DNA (LSU) sequences for Hawaiian specimens of Leptofauchea revealed one well-supported clade of Hawaiian specimens and three additional lineages. One of these clades is described here as Leptofauchea huawelau sp. nov., and is thus far known only from mesophotic depths at Penguin Bank in the Main Hawaiian Islands. L. huawelau sp. nov. is up to 21 cm, and is the largest known species. An additional lineage identified in the LSU and rbcL analyses corresponds to the recently described L. lucida from Western Australia, and is a new record for Hawai'i. Hawaiian Halopeltis formed a well-supported clade along with H. adnata from Korea, the recently described H. tanakae from mesophotic depths in Japan, and H. willisii from North Carolina, and is here described as Halopeltis nuahilihilia sp. nov. H. nuahilihilia sp. nov. has a distinctive morphology of narrow vegetative axes that harbor constrictions along their length. The current distribution of H. nuahilihilia includes mesophotic depths around W. Maui, W. Moloka'i, and the island of Hawai'i in the Main Hawaiian Islands. Few reproductive characters were observed because of the small number of specimens available; however, both species are distinct based on phylogeny and morphology. These descriptions further emphasize the Hawaiian mesophotic zone as a location harboring many undescribed species of marine macroalgae.
