  • Until now, five species (Meghimatium bilineatum, M. fruhstorferi, Limax flavus, L. marginatus, Deroceras reticulatum) in three genera of families Philomycidae and Limacidae have been reported in Korea. Philomycidae is a family of air-breathing land snails. Meghimatium hongdoensis sp. nov. is described based on its middle size (60-80 mm in body length), its body coloration (dark-red yellow), no dorsal with streaks, its genitalia, and 16rDNA sequence analysis. Specimens of this new species were collected from Hongdo island, Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do, Korea. This species is only known from the type locality at Hongdo to date. It could be found in high-humidity sites. Meghimatium uniforme (Laidlaw 1937) was the first one reported in Korea. It was also collected from Gageodo island, Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do, Korea. In this study, morphological characteristics including their radula and genital structures of these two species were described. Preliminary results of mitochondrial 16S rDNA sequencing and phylogenetic analyses indicated that these species belonged to the Korean clade.

  • This study was carried out to classify the arthropods inhabited in pine mushroom (Tricholoma matsutake Singer). The arthropods were collected in a state forest (196 compartment, 157ha) located in Yangyang-gun, Kangwon-do. After collection the arthropods were classified in laboratory. The results obtained are summarized as follow; 1. Insects inhabited in pine mushroom are in total 19 Families of 7 Orders. Some animals in Araneina, Acarina, Nematoda and Stylommatophora were also observed, 2. The most injurious pests are Gyrophaena niponensis, Elateridae, Deosophilidae and Philomycidae (Stylommatophora). 3. The most dominant species is Gyrophaena niponensis (Staphylinidae, Coleoptera). 4. Some possible natural enemies are Oxyporus germanus, Sphedanolestes impressicollis, Phoridae, Carabidae, Pteromalidae, Eulophidae and Araneina.

  • Incilaria속 육삼패류의 분류를 위해 국재 7지역에서 채집된 100개체를 대상으로 수평전분전기 영동법을 이용한 동위효소 분석을 실시하였다. I. fruhstorferi와 I. bilineata 종내 집단의 유전적 근연치는 S=0.635와 S=0.482의 유전적 근연치를 나타내는 Incilaria sp. group이 형성되어 이들의 분류학적 위치에 대한 추가 연구가 요구되었다. 각 종간 유전적 근연치는 I. fruhstorferi와 I. bilineata 간에는 S=0.364이며, I. fruhstorferi와 Incilaria sp.는 S=0.427, I. bilineata와 Incilaria sp.는 S=0.3999로 나타나 Incilaria sp. group은 I. bilineata보다 I. fruhstorferi에 가까운 유전적 유연관계를 나타냈다.
