This study was performed to evaluate the hemopoietic effects of 6 species of deer antlers from origins and parts in vitro. CD34 positive cells were isolated and confirmed the its population by FACS analysis. In a week liquid culture, there was any statistical significance between extracts of three parts of six species of deer antlers in the experiments as colony forming assay, proliferation assay, differentiation assay and observation of morphology. However, after 2 weeks- culture with extracts of three parts of six species of deer antlers, colonies were counted. six species of deer antlers, such as middle part of Korean nippon deer, upper part of Chinese nippon deer, upper part of Newzealand horse deer, middle part of Korea horse deer and middle part of Newzealand red deer, significantly increased the CFU-GM (colony forming unit garnulocyte-macrophage) of CD34 positive cells re1atεd to production of leucocytes such as eosinophil, basophil and neutrophil, while only middle part of Korea horse deer significantly increased the BFU-E (burst forming unit-erythroid) at 1 mg/ml seggesting progenting red blood cells (RBC). In the molecular study with CD34+ cells pretreated with cyclophosphamide, antagonist of hemopoietic activity, upper Part of Korean nippon deer and upper part of Chinese nippon deer effectively increased TPO involved in a late pathway of hematopoiesis just like in ELISA assay of IL-3, TPO and GM-CSF. Taken together, these results indicate exσacts of deer antler had some hemopoietic activity still proposing more clinical study and more basic mechanism research.

As the pest of the Letinus edoeds, five insect species and six animal species are investigated injuring the fresh mushroom. Of these, insect and animals, Achorutes armatus, Scaphidium amurense and Philomycus confusa caused severe damage to mushroom fruitbody, and a greate deal of damage was done to mushroom lamella by mites (Rhizoglyphis sp., and Histiostoma sp.). As the pest of Lentinus edodes bed logs, two insect species from immature bed logs, eight insects and one isopod species from matured bed logs were investigated. Of those, Moechotypa diphysis was found to be the most injurious species from both immature and matured bed logs. As the pest of Pleurotus ostreatus, six insects and the two mite species were investigated from sporophore. Of those, Lycoriella sp. and Mycophilla sp. are considered to be very serious. while two insects and five mite species were investigated from the mushroom bed. Of those, one insect (Lycoriella sp.) and two mites (Histiostoma feroniarum and Throglyphus bankslogior) found to be abundant and caused serious damage.

Three species of endosymbiotic dinoflagellates, zooxanthellae, are investigated from six host species of anthozoans from Korea. Three unrecorded endosymbionts species are Symbiodinium kawagutii, Symbiodinium microadriaticum, and Symbiodinium sp. Symbiodinium kawagutii Is associated with Alveopora japonica, Anthopleura japonica and Parasicyonis actinostoloides. Symbiodinium microadiraticum is found in Anthopleura kurogane and Parasicyonis sp. Unlike the former two symbionts, Symbiodinium sp. is associated with Anthopleura midori.

A study on indigenous diatoms was carried out at 71 sites during the period from April 1999 to August 2014 in marine and fresh water in Korea. Forty species of diatoms are new to Korea and they are divided into three classes, six subclasses, 13 orders, 19 families, and 28 genera. The nomenclatures, references, dimensions, specimens examined, local habitat, distribution in Korea, and photograph are reported here. The 40 species found in marine and fresh water showed speciesspecific habitats.

In order to study the origin of Scolopendra Corpus in Korea, samples were collected from four different markets and were studied. It was shown that the species of Scolopendra Corpus used as medicine in Korea are five to six species, of which 95.2% are of S. subspinipes mutilans L. KOCH, 1.4% of Otocrytops rubiginosus L.KOCH, and 2.1% of varieties of Scolopendra subspinipes japonica. And the other two are unknown species.

Sperm morphology of ho species (hpodemus agrarius coreae and Apodemus peninsulae peninsulae) of the genus Apodrmus in Korea was investigated. Two species were similar in six qualitative characters, i. e., head shape, presence of apical ridge, process, cone-like process, and mitochondrial sheath, and the degree of development in outer dense Hber, Lengths of head and midpiece were not different with each other, but length of principal plus end piece was significantly larger (P ≪ 0.001) in hpodemus agrarius coreae than that in hpodemus peninsular peninsulae.

Ten species of paramecia have been recorded up to the present , but there has been no report on paramecium in Korea. With the purpose of taxonomical study, paramecia were collected as materials at the several areas(ponds and streams) in Seoul from the first of March to the late of October , 1962. From the characteristics of the body-shape and the type and number of micronuclei, the six unrecorded species are identified on this paper as follows : Paramecium caudatum P.aurelia P.multimicromucleaturm P.bursaria P.trichium P.calkinsi

This study includes the taxanomy, description and a key to species of mites in the family Bdellidae from Korea. Specimens were collected at 60 localities in Korea from January, 1994 to June, 1997. As a result of this study, the following 7 species were identified : Bdella longicornis ( Linnaeus, 1758), Bdella muscorum Ewing, 1909, Cyta latirostris (Hermann, 1804), Biscirus thori Womersley, 1933, Spinibdella tenurostris (Ewing, 1914). Six species excluding Bdella muscorum of them are newly recorded from Korea.

Allele frequencies in twenty-two populations from nine Korean muricid species of five genera (Rapaninae and Ocenebrinae) wire analyzed genetically using 13 loci from 11 allozyme systems. The clustering patterns of these species were basically consistent with traditional groupings to two subfamilial categories based on shell and radula morphologies. Within six ocenebrine species it was apparent that Ceratostoma inornata and Pteropurpura adunca were most closely related to each other than to any other species belonging to the genus Ceratostoma. These results, along with other anatomical features 〔morphologies of albumin gland (female), egg capsule〕, suggest that the generic position of C. inornata, previously classified to be congeneric with other western Pacific Ceratostoma species, should be reconsidered. Our results show the close relationship of Nucella freycineti with other ocenebrine species, rather than with rapanines, which supports a previous suggestion that the genus Nucella should be placed with the subfamily Ocenebrinae rather than the subfamily Rapaninae.
