Fifteen species in 10 families of Opisthobranchia were collected from Ulung and Dog-do Islands, Korea. Eight species of them, Cadlina japonica Baba, Aldisa cooperi Robilliard & Baba, Dendrodoris denisoni (Angas), Tritonfu festive (Steams), Notobryon mardi Odhner, Hermissendo crussicornis (Eschscholtz), Sakuraeolis monesto (Bergh) and Protaeolidiella atru Baba were not recorded in Korean waters previously. In addtion to these 8 species, 5 species of Aplvsia purvufa Guilding in Miirch, Bethellino citrine (Riippell & Leuckart), Pfeurobronchoeo iaponica Thiele, Chromodoris tinctorio (Ri'spell & Leuckart), and Hypselodoris festive (A.

The specimens of the recent conchostracans belonging to order Spinicaudata collected from freshwater habitats at 13 localities in South Korea during the period from May 1981 to May 1992 were examined. As a result of the present study, two species were identified: Caenestherielru gifuensis (Ishikawa, 1895), and Eurimnodio braueriona Ishikawa, 1895. The two species were described and figured in this paper. This is the first report of the recent conchostracan fauna from Korea.

In order to resolve the taxonomic contusion of Acheilognathus limbata from Korea, 17 morphological characters, egg form and cleavage part of A. limbata from Japan and Korea were ompared. These two groups are overlapping each other in morphometric characters mostly, but two characters of snout length and interarbital width percent in head length are distinguished between them. Moreover the Korean and the Japanese specimens are significantly different from each other based on the egg form and, cleavage part of egg. These results indicate that A. limbata from Korea and from Japan are homonyms. So we consider that the target specimens from Korea should be treated Acheifognathus sp. rather than Acheilognathus limbata until further informations are available.
