Two new harpacticoid species of family Thalestridae are described on the basis of the specimens collected from the shallow sublittoral sand bottom or seagrasses of rocky shore in South Korea. Dactylopusia pauciarticulata n. sp. is discernible from its 19 congeners by the 6-articulated antennule. Paradactylopodia koreana n. sp. most resembles P. striata Kunz, 1973 of its seven congeners, but obviously distinguished from it by the shape of male leg 2 endopod.

Marine harpacticoid copepods of the genus parathalestris, which are suspected as a chief cause of pinholes or galls of cultivated seaweeds like Undaria pinnatifida, are studied taxonomically. As a result of examining the specimens from 23 localities in Korea since 1989, the authors confirmed sic species of the genus Parathalestris including a new species, P. parviseta n. sp., and four species new to korean fauna: P. bulbiseta Lang, 1965; P. verrucosa Ito, 1970; P. pacificus Tschislenko, 1971 and P. arelata Ito, 1972. A key to these six species of parathalestris was made out, with the illustrations for them.

Two marine harpacticoid species, Phyllothalestris sarsi Sewell, 1940 and Dactylopusia falcifera Willey, 1935 belonging to family Thalestridae are redescribed from South Korea, on the basis of the specimens of both sexes mainly from the washings of macroalgae at littoral rocky shore or sublittoral bottom sediments during the period from 1994 to 2000. They are new to Korean fauna, and this report is the first record for them in the Pacific Ocean.

Two marine harpacticoid copepods are newly recorded from Korea : Eudactylopus specitabilis (Brian, 1923) and E. andrewi Sewell , 1940. Six species are currently recognized in the genus Eudactylopus, multitidue of which were often disputed among authors on their taxonomic status, so we treat here the taxonomic features of the two species above on the basis of specimens from South Sea and East Sea of Korea. E.spectabilis occurred first outside the Mediterranean Sea. and is fully redescribed with illustrations. Important male characters like the shape of leg 2 endopod and leg 5 with its setal arrangement are particularly emphasized as the diagnostic characters.

Paramenophia platysoma (Thompson and Scott, 1903) is newly reported from Korean waters based on the materials collected from several seagrass and algal bed habitats. The Korean materials of P. platysoma in the present study coincide well with the original description of the species with respects to the characteristic features of the first, fourth, and fifth legs, and in most respects to P. platysoma sensu $Gam{\hat{o}}$ (1969) reported from Japan except for the antennary exopod. However, they show some differences to P. platysoma sensu Pallares (1973, 1975) reported in Argentina, in terms of the morphology of the fifth leg in females and the second leg in males. Detailed description and illustrations of P. platysoma are provided for both sexes. The morphological features of Paramenophia species are discussed and a key to the species of genus is provided.

Two harpacticoid copepods, Pseudonsiella longicaudata. n. sp. and Xylora longiantennulata n. sp. belonging to the subfamily Donsiellinae are described. They were found in the wood infested by isopod of the genus Limnoria from the East Sea (Sea of Japan), Korea. The former species is characteristic in having the long caudal ramus and four setae on mandi bular basis. The latter one closely resembles X, nertica Hicks in general body form, but is clearly distinguished from X. nertica in that the antennule is much longer and the caudal ramus is longer, and leg 5 endopod bears four setae.

A new species of Eudactylopus Scott A., 1909 is described from the southern coast of Korea. The specimens were collected using a light trap set overnight at the entrance near a pier. Eudactylopus yokjidoensis n. sp. is similar to E. andrewi Sewell, 1940 and E. spectabilis (Brian, 1923) in two key respects: similar length of proximal and distal inner setae on female P2 enp-2, and modification of two subapical setae on male P2 endopod. However, E. yokjidoensis can be differentiated from the two species by following morphological characteristics: in females, the length ratio of cephalothorax/2nd-4th thoracic somites combined is smaller in E. yokjidoensis than other two species (1 : 0.8 vs. 1 : 1); antennule has nine segments (vs. 7-segmented in E. andrewi); P2 to P4 each bears a process in medial distal margin of basis, while it is just smooth in E. spectabilis; in males; the length ratio of cephalothorax to 2nd-4th thoracic somites combined is smaller in E. yokjidoensis than other two species (1 : 0.6 vs. 1 : 1 in E. andrewi and 1 : 0.8 in E. spectabilis); and P5 exopod has a comb-like innermost seta, while it is bipinnate seta in E. spectabilis. To prove the Korean species of Eudactylopus to be new, full descriptions of both sexes are given here, and the claim is supported by distinct genetic differences between E. yokjidoensis and E. spectabilis (22.3-22.7%) in the mitochondrial gene cytochrome oxidase subunit I(mtCOI) sequence.
