  • We surveyed the biodiversity of lepidopterous insects in Jindo Island using UV bucket trap in July 2016 to determine the relationship between surrounding environment and ecosystem in order to contribute to biodiversity conservation and management of coastal islands in Korea. Based on our survey results, a total of 262 lepidopterous insect species in 16 families were collected from Jindo Island. Members belonging to families Noctuidae and Geometridae made up approximately half of the total species (86 species [32.82%] in Noctuidae and 44 species [16.79] in Geometridae). There were 29 species (11.07%) belonging to Crambidae and 28 species (10.69%) belonging to Pyralidae. As a result of all collections based on previous literature and this study, a total of 730 species belonging to 34 families were collected from Jindo Island, including 33 protected species, 242 species (33.15%) belonging to Noctuidae (the most abundant), 124 species (16.99%) belonging to Geometridae, 79 species (10.82%) belonging to Crambidae, and 65 species (8.90%) belonging to Pyralidae. The most frequently collected species was Lamoria glaucalis in this syudy. Our results on the diversity of lepidopterous insects will provide basic information for future investigation on diverse changes in the ecosystem of Jindo Island, Korea.

  • Difference of the inset diversity and community structures between the bog Hwaeom-neup and its surrounding forest of Mt. Wonhyo-san located at Yangsan were investigated. Overall 15 orders, 87 families, 204 genera and 233 species were identified. Hydrophilic Harpalidae species were observed in small number at the bog, while the insect species representing hardwood forest were also collected at the bog. Species diversity was relatively higher at the forest (H'=4.80) than at the bog (H'=4.10). The dominant species was Diplous depressus (Gebler) both at bog as well as at forest. Ground-walking Coleoptera as Carabus sternbergi stembergi Roeschke, Damaster jankowskii jankowskii (Oberthur) and D. depressus was spread from forest into bog. Longhorn beetles Leptura arcuata Panzer and Chlorophorus diadema (Motschulsky) being characteristic species of shrub forest were also observed spreading into bog. It was consequently suggested that the bog was in part progressed into dry succession and its boundary was not clearly defined with forest at least upon the structure of insect commnunity.

  • Identifying the distribution of species and specific factors related to it is very important because it is habitat conservation that is greatly linked not only to ecological research but also to human health. After all, protecting each one's habitat will protect wildlife and further maintain a healthy ecosystem. Therefore, in this study, data were collected, compared, and analyzed through existing studies and field-oriented surveys. The results of the survey confirmed high species diversity in agricultural areas and forest areas that can reduce moisture supply and moisture loss, and the non-segmental environment, that is, ecological connectivity, was largely influenced by amphibian species diversity. It was confirmed that the non-fragmented environment, that is, ecological connectivity, was greatly affected by amphibian species diversity. In addition, the three factors that affect amphibian survival are: It was identified as the effect of not establishing a buffer space, the effect on the ecological transformation around the habitat during the summer rainy season, and the effect on the disconnected ecological environment.

  • 꼬리말발도리는 한반도 특산식물임에도 불구하고 종의 분포, 개체군 및 자생지 특성, 그리고 이것에 기초한 종 보전 연구를 찾아보기 어렵다. 본 연구는 꼬리말발도리를 대상으로 종 분포 및 생태 특성을 분석하였다. 꼬리말발도리의 분포 특성은 문헌, 표본 및 현장 조사 자료를 참고하였다. 현장 조사는 6개 지역에서 11개의 대방형구 ($15{\times}15m$)와 33개 소방형구 ($5{\times}5m$)의 자생 집단을 대상으로 2014년 5월부터 10월까지 실시하였다. 개체군 특성으로 풍부성(밀도, 피도), demographic 속성 (개화율 및 결실율)이 조사되었으며, 자생지 특성으로 식생 (구조 및 종조성), 임내광량 (광량, 수관열림도) 및 토양 (온 습도, 이화학 속성) 특성을 분석하였다. 꼬리말발도리는 경상도 (강원도 태백 포함)가 분포 중심이었으며, 넓은 해발 분포 범위 (평균 493 m, 및 해발 290~959 m 범위)를 나타내었다. 꼬리말발도리 자생지의 평균 사면경사는 $16^{\circ}$ ($7{\sim}35^{\circ}$ 범위)이었으며, 주로 너덜 계곡 입지 및 그곳과 접한 사면하부에 분포하였다. 꼬리말발도리 개체군의 소방형구 ($5m{\times}5m$) 내에서 평균 12.5개체가 출현하였고, $m^2$당 평균밀도는 0.5를 보였다. 평균 개화율은 15%로 낮은 개화율을 보이며 영양생식에 의한 번식이 빈번히 이루어지는 것으로 판단된다. 꼬리말발도리 자생지의 조사구 수준 식물상은 138분류군이었다. 꼬리말발도리 자생지의 식생은 너덜 입지환경을 잘 반영하는 층층나무 (중요치 25.5%) 및 물푸레나무 (중요치 15.8%)가 우점하는 서식지로 나타났다. 층층나무 유형은 급경사 지역, 그리고 물푸레나무 유형은 주로 높은 해발고도에 분포하는 특성이 관찰되었다. 연구 결과, 꼬리말발도리는 인간 활동보다는 범람과 같은 자연 교란, 기후변화 및 진화 생태학적인 요인에 의해 개체수의 변동이 예상되는 종으로 판단되며, 개체군 및 자생지의 지속성을 위협하는 뚜렷한 증거는 찾아볼 수 없었다.

  • Calamus andamanicus Kurz is one of the commercially important solitary rattans endemic to Andaman and Nicobar islands. The habitat suitability modeling program, MaxEnt, was used to predict the potential ecological niches of this species, based on bioclimatic variables. The study revealed high potential distribution of C. andamanicus across both Andaman and Nicobar islands. Of the 33 spatially unique points, 21 points were recorded from South and North Andamans and 12 from Great Nicobar Islands. The islands like Little Andaman, North Sentinel, Little Nicobar, Tllangchong, Teressa were also predicted positive even though this rattan is not recorded from these islands. Mean diurnal range, higher precipitation in the wettest month of the year, annual precipitation and precipitation in the driest month are the main predictors of this species distribution.

  • The purpose of this study is to present the raw data for management and conservation of tidal flat by objective surveying and analysing the halophytes and vegetation distributed in Seocheon tidal flat wetland conservation area, Korea. The results are as follows. The numbers of halophytes in this site were summarized as 27 taxa including 13 families, 21 genera, 26 species and 1 variety. In the results of ecologically important species, rare plant was 1 taxa, 10 taxa of the specific plants by floristic region, 1 taxa of naturalized plant and 1 taxa of the plant with approval for delivering oversea. The life form spectrum consisted of therophytes(44.4%), hemicryptophytes(25.9%), geophytes(14.8%), nanophanerophytes(7.5%), chamaephytes and hydatophytes(each 3.7%). The types of vegetation of Seocheon tidal flat wetland conservation area were classified with 17 communities including Vitex rotundifolia community, Suaeda maritima community, Calystegia soldanella community and so forth. In the halophytes composition, section C and E-1 had the largest character species and companion species. In the results of vegetation amount, section C, D, E-1 and E-2 were the highest score, on the other hand, section A and B were the lowest. The final rating was calculated by adding up values of two factors, and section C and E-1 had the highest rating of II. In future, we will survey the whole flora in Seocheon tidal flat, we will offer the help to establishing the conservation plan of coastal plant ecosystem in West Sea.

  • In the study, we confirmed morphological traits and calculated the Risk Class of 25 mould species, including Tyromyces palustris, through decomposition rate of substrate for characteristic confirmation of injured microorganisms. We received the injured microorganisms in wood and it was pure cultivated. We observed growth traits and decomposition rate of substrate. Also, it allows the calculation of Risk Class to be worried in the case of growth in wooden cultural properties. As a result, Tyromyces palustris, representative of brown-rot, has the characteristics about decomposition rate of substrate - Cellulose ; more active(+++), Lignin ; more active(+++), Xylan ; more active(+++), Starch ; active(++). We classified Tyromcyes palustris as a first Risk Class and as a second Risk Class about Schizophyllum commune et al(9 species, See table 1. We look forward to offering standard data base for evaluating Risk Class as a matter of applying preventive conservation in wooden cultural properties through our study.

  • Korea's national park system resembles that of Japan in many ways. In this study, National park Systems of the two countries are compared from a standpoint of their historical backgrounds to be formed and in aspect of its conservation by the main revision of national park laws in perspective. In conclusion it was found out that Korea's toleration-based regulations on building park amenities have gradually neglected the park conservation effort, whereas Japan's authorization-oriented regulations have streng thened their emphasis on park conservation. From the comparison as above, the polices to be modified for Korean national park are proposed as follows: 1. National park system, which values diversity of species, is to be proposed. For this, the Article 8 which allows a development of National parks, Enforcement Ordinance Article 4, The Article 18 of Law, Enforcement Regulation Article 6 & 7 of National Park Law should be reviewed for deletion and revision. 2. On the basis of the laws, zoning system should be readjusted by discriminated conservation policy. Also, the readjustment of zoning system should be enforced after thorough analysis and research on the value of natural resources in the national park. 3. Korea should closely review the recently revised Japanese laws on the national parks and nature revitalization promotion for applying them to conservation policy of Korean national parks.

  • 괘불탱은 불교에서 특별한 야외 법회 때 사용하는 대형 족자형 불화이다. 보관 시 괘불궤라는 보관상자에 보관한다. 괘불탱의 바탕재나 안료 등에 대한 연구 사례는 많으나 괘불탱의 괘불축과 괘불궤에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이었다. 본 연구에서는 조선시대에 제작된 괘불탱을 중심으로 수종분석을 실시하였다. 대상은 보은 법주사, 공주 마곡사, 예산 수덕사, 부안 개암사, 영천 수도사, 상주 북장사, 곡성 도림사, 양산 통도사, 예산 대련사 등 총 10건을 선정하였으며 시료 81점에 대해서 수종분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 괘불축 및 괘불궤에 사용된 수종은 소나무류 51점, 피나무속 8점, 노간주나무속 6점, 잣나무류 5점, 솔송나무속 4점, 미송속 3점, 망개나무속 2점, 문배나무속 1점, 대나무아과 1점으로 확인되었다. 솔송나무속과 미송속은 외래수종이며 보수 및 수리 과정에서 사용된 것으로 사료된다. 전체적으로 소나무류를 이용하여 괘불탱과 괘불궤를 제작하였고 잣나무류도 사용되었다. 불교문화에서 상징성을 갖는 피나무속도 괘불궤를 제작하는데 사용된 것으로 사료되며, 망개나무속과 노간주나무속과 같이 목조각에서는 잘 사용되지 않는 수종도 식별되었다. 본 연구 결과를 토대로 향후 괘불탱 및 괘불궤에 진정성 있는 보존 연구에 활용될 것이라 기대한다.
