한국 연안에서 서식하는 키조개의 외투강에서 채집된 요각류 1종이 Anthessius속의 신종임이 확인되어 A. atrinae로 명명하였다. 본 종은 제2안테나 마지막 마디에 있는 3개의 claw와 제 4외지 마지막 마디의 강모식 II, I, 5를 갖는 점과 caudal ramus의 형태의 차이에 의하여 다른 종과 구별된다.

Corbicula fluminea Muller 1884 is the commonest freshwater bivalve in Asian countri including Korea. This clam is easily found in the freshwater systems, and edible as a food source in Korea. This study was aimed to confirm natural infection of C. fluminea collected from various localities with Echinostoma cinetorchis, an important hum intestinal fluke in Korea. (omitted)

Five species of intertidal clams including Ruditapes philippinarum, Tegillarca granosa, Solen strictus, Heteromacoma irus, and Coecella chinensis were tested for the presence of the protozoan parasite, Perkinsus sp. using fluid thioglycollate medium (FTM) fortified with antibiotics and histological techniques. Each individual clam was placed in a test tube filled with 10ml FTM, placed in totally dark place, and incubated over a week. After incubation the clam tissues were stained with Lugol's iodine solution and examined under a light microscope to find out any hypnospores of Perkensus sp. in the tissues. Cross-sections of the clams were also embedded in paraffin, sliced to 3um, and stained with Harry's hematoxylene and Picro eosine to observe the presence of tomont or trophozoites. Perkinsus sp. were found in the presence of tomont or trophozoites. Perkinsus sp. were found in the tissues of R. philippinarum collected from Kangjin and Wando, along the south coast of Korea. However, Perkinsus sp. was not found in four other species of clams nor R. philippinaurm collected from Kimnyong and Waido in Cheju. A size-dependent Perkinsus sp. infection was found in R. philippinarum collected rom Kangjin and Wando the clams smaller than 15mm in shell width do not exhibit and Perkinsus sp. while other clams greater than 20mm in shell width exhibit almost 100% infection. To determine the number of Perkinsus sp. in the clams, FTM cultured clam tissues were digested with 2M NaOH solution and the number of hypnospores in the tube were counted. The number of hypnospores counted from the tissues indicated that each Manila clam contains 100,000 to 3,500,000 Perkinsus cells or 20,000 to 1,000,000 cells per gram tissue wet weight. The results of cell counts also suggests that such a high occurrence of Perkinsus sp. in the clam may cause mortality, as already reported from other studies of Perkinsus spp.

1980년 9월부터 1981년 8월까지 충남 서천군 서면솔리 해역의 바지락에서 검은 1상의 안점과 염세포가 명백하여 꼬리가 긴 Cercaria tapidis의 기생률과 기생된 바지락의 크기와 충체의 형태를 관찰하였다. Sporocyst의 크기는 $75\sim1550\times210\sim320{\mu}m$ 이고. 그 내부에 60여 개의 배세포와 발육중인 cercaria가 충만되어 있었다. cercaria의 충체부는 $245\sim320\times105\sim130{\mu}m$으로 타원형이고 꼬리늘 $1225\sim1650\times40\sim50{\mu}m$로 가늘고길며 충체부의 5배나 되었다. Cercaria의 flame cell 식은 [(2+3+2)+(3+3)]=30 이다. 총 2086개체의 바지락을 조사한 결과 120개체($5.75\%$)에서 기생된 Cercaria tapidis 검출하었다. 가장 높은 기생률은 12월로서 $23.27\%$였고, 가장 낮은 계절은 5월로서 $0.85\%$였다. 바지락의 각장별기생률을 보면 $3.1\sim4.0cm$의 3년생에서 $3.78\%$로서 가장 많이 검출되었다. $2.1\sim3.0cm$ 크기에서 $1.34\%$, $4.1\sim5.0cm$에서 $0.52\%$로 낮은 기생률이었다.

Manila clam, Ruditapes philippinarum, is commercially and ecologically important marine bivalve in Korea and japan. However, clam landings in the two countries have dramatically declined since the 1980-1990's. In the present study, the protozoan parasite, Perkinsus sp., lectin (host's defense-related glycoprotein) and histopathological features were investigated in Manila clams collected from Gomso Bay in Korea and Ariake Bay in japan (one of the largest clam beds in each country) during summer and fall, 2002-2003. DNA sequences of non-transcribe spacer (NTS), internal transcribed space. (ITS) and 5.85 rRNA of Perkinsus sp. were identical to those of P. atlanticus that was reported in Europe and Korea. For diagnosis of Perkinsus, the fluid thioglycollate medium (FTM) and the 2 M NaOH lysis methods were used. Prevalence of the parasite varied from 92.5-98.7% in Gomso Bay and 35.5-37.9% in Ariake Bay. Infection intensity, in terms of the number of Perkinsuscells per gram tissue wet weight, in the clams of Gomso Bay in fall 2002 averaged 1,010,077-470,937 recording approximately100 times higher than that of Ariake Bay, and these were twice higher than those of summer samples in each location. Mean hemagglutination titer of the clams from Gomso Bay was approximately 60-folds higher than that of clams from Ariake Bay in 2002. In histological preparation of the clams from Gomso Bay in 2002, trophozoites of P. atlanticus were in groups and resulted in severe inflammatory response of host clam. Prevalence of the trematod, Cercaria tapes-like in the clams of Gomso Bay and Ariake Bay were 8.8 % and 10.5% respectively. In conclusion, the clams from Gomso Bay showed more severe pathologic symptoms and higher immune response than those of the clams from Ariake Bay.
