The earwig species Spongovostox sakaii Nishikawa, 2006 is reported from the Korean Peninsula for the first time. The species was originally described from Amami-Oshima, Nansei Islands, Japan, which is located in the Oriental Region. Its distribution in Korea was confirmed by collections from Gwangneung Forest, which is located in the middle of South Korea. This is also first record of the pantropical genus Spongovostox Burr, 1911a from the Palearctic Region. Along with Labia minor Linnaeus, 1758 and Paralabellula curvicauda (Motschulsky, 1863), which had been reported from Korea previously, notes on the species are provided. And a key, descriptions, photos, and illustrations are given for their identification.

The earwig Proreus simulans($St{\aa}l$, 1860) has been recently reported from Jeollanam-do in the far southern section of the Korean Peninsula. Natural photographs of this species were obtained from Gwangyang Province for the first time in 2013, with specimens being physically collected in light traps from Suncheon Province in 2018. The species is widely distributed throughout the Oriental region, where its main habitat is lowland paddy fields. The earwig belongs to family Chelisochidae, subfamily Chelisochinae, and genus Proreus, which are newly recognized in Korea. The diversity of the order Dermaptera is currently estimated to be 6 families, 14 genera, and 24 species in Korea.

Hot pepper growth in no-tillage cultivation on recycled ridge was increased by 22% compared with tillage cultivation. At 3 years after no-tillage cultivation, hot pepper growth was increased by 12% compared with tillage cultivation. Dry weight of unripe hot pepper at 2 years of no-tillage cultivation was 348.4 kg/10a increasing 16% compared with tillage cultivation while dry weight of unripe hot pepper was decreased at 3 years of no-tillage cultivation. Bacteria flora at 2 years of no-tillage cultivation was significantly increased compared with tillage cultivation. Bacteria flora was not significantly different at 3 years of no-tillage cultivation. Actinomyces flora at 2 years of no-tillage cultivation was significantly increased compared with tillage cultivation. Actinomyces flora was decreased at 3 years of no-tillage cultivation. Fungi flora at 2 and 3 years of no-tillage cultivation was increased by 1.3 and 1.7 times respectively, compared with tillage cultivation. Generation amount of carbon dioxide at no-tillage cultivation soil was remarkably decreased by 41% compared with tillage cultivation. Population of animalcule in early stage of hot pepper soil was 2 species and 6 individuals on Collembola and Acari at tillage cultivation. Population of animalcule in hot pepper soil was 5 species and 11 individuals including Chilopode at one year of no-tillage cultivation. Population of animalcule in hot pepper soil was 3 species and 5 individuals including Coleoptera and Chilopode at 2 years of no-tillage cultivation. Population of animalcule was 4 species and 40 individuals including Hypogastrurigae and 8 species and 97 individuals including Earwig (Labidura japornica) at 46 days after transplanting on tillage cultivation. Population of animalcule was 9~10 species and 101~107 individuals on no-tillage cultivation. Nature status for environmental change as index organism was 19 points and 33 points, at tillage and no-tillage cultivation, respectively. These results indicate that no-tillage agriculture of korean-style on recycled ridge plays a very important roles on pepper growth, biodiversity of animalcule, and greenhouse gases at plastic film greenhouse soil in no-tillage systems.
